The sample below shows how to run the specified group of test items via TestComplete's command line.

1. Create a RunTestItemGroup.js (or RunTestItemGroup.vbs) file with the following contents.
2. To open a TestComplete project and run a group of test items, run the RunTestItemGroup.js (or RunTestItemGroup.vbs) script with the appropriate command-line arguments, e.g. the following command line will open the TestProjectTestForRunFromCommandLine.pjs project suite in TestComplete 9 and execute the Group1 test items group in the TestProject81 project:
"<PathTORunTestItemGroupjs>\RunTestItemGroup.js" "<PathToTestProjectTestForRunFromCommandLine>\TestProjectTestForRunFromCommandLine.pjs" /p:TestProjectTestForRunFromCommandLine /testitemgroup:ProjectTestItem
or
"<PathTORunTestItemGroupvbs>\RunTestItemGroup.vbs" "<PathToTestProjectTestForRunFromCommandLine>\TestProjectTestForRunFromCommandLine.pjs" /p:TestProjectTestForRunFromCommandLine /testitemgroup:ProjectTestItem

VBScript


' RunTestItemGroup.vbs

Dim testItemGroup, project, objArgs, projectSuite

Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments
projectSuite = objArgs(0)

Set objRegExp = New RegExp

For i = 1 To objArgs.length-1
  
  objRegExp.Pattern = "/testitemgroup:(\w+)"
  If (objRegExp.Test(objArgs(i)) = True) Then
    testItemGroup = objRegExp.Replace(objArgs(i), "$1")
  End If
  
  objRegExp.Pattern = "/project:(\w+)"
  If (objRegExp.Test(objArgs(i)) = True) Then
     project = objRegExp.Replace(objArgs(i), "$1")
  End If
  
  objRegExp.Pattern = "/p:(\w+)"
  If (objRegExp.Test(objArgs(i)) = True) Then
    project = objRegExp.Replace(objArgs(i), "$1")
  End If
  
Next

Set objRegExp = Nothing

Dim tc, tci, ProjectTestItems
Set tc = CreateObject("TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication.9")

Set tci = tc.Integration
tc.Visible = True
tci.OpenProjectSuite(projectSuite)
Set ProjectTestItems = tci.TestSuite(project)
tci.RunProjectTestItem project, testItemGroup

JScript


// RunTestItemGroup.js

var testItemGroup, project;

var objArgs = WScript.Arguments;
var projectSuite = objArgs(0);

for (i = 1; i < objArgs.length; i++)
{
  if (objArgs(i).search(/\/testitemgroup:/i) != -1)
  {
    testItemGroup = objArgs(i).replace(/\/testitemgroup:/i, "");
  }
  if (objArgs(i).search(/\/p:/i) != -1)
  {
    project = objArgs(i).replace(/\/p:/i, "");
  }
  if (objArgs(i).search(/\/project:/i) != -1)
  {
    project = objArgs(i).replace(/\/project:/i, "");
  }
  if (objArgs(i).search(/\/project:/i) != -1)
  {
    project = objArgs(i).replace(/\/project:/i, "");
  }
}

var tc = new ActiveXObject("TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication.9");

var tci = tc.Integration;
tc.Visible = true;
tci.OpenProjectSuite(projectSuite);
ProjectTestItems = tci.TestSuite(project);
tci.RunProjectTestItem(project, testItemGroup);

Python


#RunTestItemGroup.js
import re #The module re provides full support for Perl-like regular expressions in Python
def test():
  objArgs = WScript.Arguments
  projectSuite = objArgs(0)
  
  for i in range(len(objArgs)):
    if re.search('/testitemgroup:/i',objArgs(i)) != -1 :
      testItemGroup = re.sub('/testitemgroup:/i',"",objArgs(i))
    if re.search('/p:/i',objArgs(i)) != -1:
      project = re.sub('/p:/i',"",objArgs(i))
    if re.search('/project:/i',objArgs(i)) != -1:
      project = re.sub('/project:/i',"",objArgs(i))
    if re.search('/project:/i',objArgs(i)) != -1:
      project = re.sub('/project:/i',"",objArgs(i))
  tc = Sys.OleObject["TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication.9"]
  tci = tc.Integration
  tc.Visible = True
  tci.OpenProjectSuite(projectSuite)
  ProjectTestItems = tci.TestSuite(project)
  tci.RunProjectTestItem(project, testItemGroup)
