Recognition of different SQL Management versions : General Questions

[leon]

I am struggling to have 1 set script running for identifying, recognising or selecting items in the tree in the different versions of SQL Management Studio.

Eg:
The Object Explorer of SQL Server2008R2 is mapped as : container[@caption='Object Explorer']/container[@caption='']/tree/tree/treeitem/treeitem[@accessiblename='Security'] level and

SQL Server 2008 is mapped as: container[@caption='Object Explorer']/container[@caption='']/container/tree/tree/treeitem/treeitem[@accessiblename='Security'] and extra level = container. The 2 versions are thus not mapped the same.

How do I get around this without so many "continue fail" actions because when I have to validate if a certain Login user has been created the one fails and the one passes due to this problem which results in my script showing a Fail

As scott suggested you can use a relative RxPath. I would suggest you to read following blog
http://www.ranorex.com/blog/ranorexpath-tips-and-tricks
In this blog will be explained what's possible with the RxPath.

In Ranorex 3.1 there will be a setting to change the Report Level for the "Continue on Fail" action. Then you can set the Report Level to Success even the Test Case failed.

Aah thx Scott, you're a star. Seems to be working now.
