Delay VS Auto-wait
We're working with older software and finding long load times to be a problem while using TestComplete. We're using delays and auto-wait to manage the issue, but I'm still foggy on the difference bet...

Champion Level 3In this example, the difference being one keyword test has 5 actions (delay set in project) and the other keyword test has 10 actions (which includes delays)
Both do the same thing.
If your loading times vary, and there's some sort of indication that it's loaded, such as a dialog box, button being enabled etc. Then it's best to have code that waits and checks the status of that dialog box or button being visible or enabled.
