ranorex multiple instance on same machine

Post by sdimbre » Wed Apr 11, 2012 4:46 pm

Hello,

Is it possible to run multiple instances of ranorex on one machine at same time. In the sense I will execute ranorex scripts on different browser at same time. ex, on i.e and firefox at same time.

Thanks and Regards,
Dimbre

Hi,

Why you want to perform this? Are you trying to test a GUI like a real user or do you perform other actions, where no mouse or keyboard is needed?

Ranorex acts like a "real" user and even as real user you cannot click two object in different browser at the same time. Therefore it is not possible to test browsers parallel. I would suggest you to read following blog for cross browser testing http://www.ranorex.com/blog/cross-brows ... automation
