When you record a test scenario with Ranorex Studio, the whole UI object identifications magic happens behind the scenes. Nonetheless, it is important to have a basic understanding of how UI elements are represented in the RanoreXPath, in case you have to troubleshoot failed test cases.
Ranorex Studio utilizes a specific syntax, the so-called RanoreXPath, to locate UI elements in your system under test. The RanoreXPath is based on the XPath query language, which is designed to navigate through XML hierarchies and structures, but provides additional attributes and operators. You can use it to navigate through the UI hierarchy of your system under test and uniquely identify even dynamic UI elements.
Watch this video to learn more about the capabilities of the RanoreXPath, and how you can use it to uniquely identify UI elements of any desktop, web, or mobile application.
