Hi guys
We are evaluating Ranorex as a candidate for our automation on iOS solution.
We are able to run iOSKeePassSample successfully and have a question.
We do a linguistic testing(taking screenshots for multiple languages) for client who does not provide an IPA file but ask us to download their app directly from 'App Store'
We would like to record a mobile test and also take screenshots but we don't have a custom IPA file.
If we use Ranorex, will there be a way to record and take screenshots for multiple languages with an iOS app directly downloaded from 'App Store'?
Thanks
Can I test an iOS app directly downloaded from App Store?

Hi,
Nope, you can't test the app without proper instrumentation. In other words, without instrumented IPA, there is no way you can automate the app.

Re: Can I test an iOS app directly downloaded from App Store?
Hi,
we received an .IPA file from client and when I try to add the app via Ranorex Instrucmentation Wizard,
it says "Code signing information invalid. Set correct p 12. password and mobileprovision data in instrumentation settings dialog"
Q1) It seems like P12 Certificate hasn't been obtained. Does this mean that client hasn't done proper instrumentation for their iOS app?
Q2) Can instrumentation only be done on a Mac machine with Xcode when we are not going to receive the xCode Project for the app from client?
Q3) Is there a way to instrument IPA when I only have a custom .IPA file, without having the xCode project for the app?
Thanks

Hi,
I hope this helps you.

That means that you have to enter the path of the p12 file, of the mobile provisioning file and the password in the instrumentation settings.Q1) It seems like P12 Certificate hasn't been obtained. Does this mean that client hasn't done proper instrumentation for their iOS app?
The instrumentation can either be done in code directly in the Xcode project, or you can simply use the instrumentation wizard on Windows OS, which gets installed with Ranorex Studio.Q2) Can instrumentation only be done on a Mac machine with Xcode when we are not going to receive the xCode Project for the app from client?
Yes it is possible, but you need to have the mobile provisioning profile and the p12 file as well.Q3) Is there a way to instrument IPA when I only have a custom .IPA file, without having the xCode project for the app?
I hope this helps you.
