Hi,
My setup is mobile website on rxbrowser on a ipad.
I am attempting to click on a 'Login!' button. Ranorex clicks on this button successfully but no further action happens.

Snapshot is attached.

Thanks in advance to everyone for help.

Hi Harsh,

Unfortunately, there is not much you can do to analyze this issue without the application under test.
I would suggest requesting a support query to [email protected] and send them your *.ipa file.

Best regards,

Ok, Here's the update.

This is happening on rxbrowser(mobile website), not a mobile app.

I can enter the data in the input field (username and password fields) but the validator is finding the values empty.

The url is u2-ts5-qa.egatesoln.com

Username value: abc
Password value: abc

When I login manually with above values and click on login button, I get an error saying the credentials are incorrect (as expected).

But when I do the same with ranorex, it inputs the credentials and clicks on login button, but the validator sees no values and hence clicking on login button does not even gives the incorrect credentials error.

A new snapshot is attached.

Thank you, everyone, in advance for your help.

Hi,

I think your problem is most probably caused by not triggered event while using SetValue action. I think there must some onsomething (oninput, ontype, etc...) script associated with the mentioned input fields? As far as I remember (I'm not doing mobile testing for some time), SetValue action simply enters the values, without triggering any event. I believe it works the same on desktop, so it must be used with caution.

Thank you for your reply.

The issue arises because an event listener is not properly getting fired when Ranorex interacts with the page, and this is not a problem because we can fire the event listener ourselves using ExecuteScript method.

This will work almost the same if you are working in a recording module, or if you are working in user code. You just need to perform the ExecuteScript after you enter the username, and the password.

public void ExecuteScriptOnPage()
{
var dom = repo.Browser.Dom;
dom.Self.ExecuteScript("$(\"#username\").change();");
dom.Self.ExecuteScript("$(\"#password\").change();");
}
