Performance operations (Start, Check, Group Check, Get Value)
Does anybody have used the operations in the Performance section?
If so, can anybody tell me what exactly does the Get Value operation?

Each operation is documented at https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/keyword-testing/reference/performance/index.html
Once you start a counter, if you call "Get Value" for that counter, it will return whatever the current value is for that counter.
tristaanogreThanks. But there is no example for how to use the " Get Value" operation. Documentation just states this operation returns the time elapsed.
For example, I would expect that when using this operation in keyword tests, I would see the value (time elapsed) in the log file, but it isn't..
My suspision is that it's a bug, but not sure.
Check out the following: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/advanced/measuring-test-run-time.html#using-counters-in-keyword-tests
Basically, Get Value does just that... gets the value. You would need to then assign that value to a variable or use it in some other call. The examples given in the above link show using Get Value followed by a Log.Message where the value is passed in as "Last Operation Result". You could do the same when assigning as a variable.
So.... not a bug, just a matter of finding the correct documentation. :)
