Multiple Issues with TestComplete 15.51.4.7

I upgraded our PCs to TC 15.51.4.7 and we encountered multiple severe issues.

 

Issue #1 - The WaitAliasChild function is not working. Smartbear has acknowledged this and they are "working on a solution". We use WaitAliasChild in a common function that gets called throughout our testing so this broke a lot for us.

 

Issue #2 - The ClickItem method is not working properly for HTML select statements. It does not click the correct item. It occurs with ClickItem(0) or ClickItem("option"). 

 

I submitted both items to support. Just posting to let others know exactly what I encountered since it seems like others were having issues with this release.

    We also had our tests break due to the clickitem issue.  I'd used "keys" to workaround which I wasnt happy with.  Support offered the solution of "click"  followed by clickitem("option-text") which worked.

  • Did anyone try upgrading to the latest version? 
    15.51.18.7
    It seems that the waitAliasChild still does not work. ðŸ¤”

      I just tried 15.51.26.7 and still have the same issue with ClickItem not working.

        Interesting. I performed additional testing today and verified ClickItem is working for me. I am using the latest version of TC (15.51.26.7) and Chrome (113.0.5672.127). My testing is specific to a webpage that is using an HTML Select element. 

         

        I did not verify WaitAliasChild functionality because we eliminated it from our scripts entirely.
