75147 Server Timeout at .exists()
Issue 75147 testtool: respect .exists( time ) value over 'Server Timeout'
Effect: If the value for Server Timeout in the TestTool Settings is lower than the value in the .exist() command, an error comes up, telling you a Server Timeout happened.
This only happens, if the dialog, that is waited for, needs longer to come up, than the value of the Server Timeout is.
Workaround: The default of the Server Timeout is 45 seconds;
The test runner might change this to 3 minutes or the script writer uses something like this:
Dim i as integer i=0 while (NOT .exists(10) AND i<10) i = i+1 wend
64746 byRef
Issue 64746 parameter are no longer passed byRef to sub routines
Effect: Some variables don't change.
Workaround: Declare each variable in a new line.
Not all test scripts are updated yet, to workaround this issue.
