I executed a test case in a tetsuite from Squish IDE. Language is Python 2.6.6. I am using EVALUATION version of Squish on Windows 7.

Solution

  • Re-installed the evaluation copy after un-installing the existing and tried again. It works. This error is not coming in licensed version. The exact reason for the error could not be found yet.
