Hello,
I have a pretty big tree of different test cases and smart folders and sometimes the smart folders need to have the same name, but in other parts of the tree (like in other test cases). Is this possible or should I attempt at doing my tests in another fashion?
Thanks

Hello Thomas,
Thank you for posting your feature request.
There is a much debated feature request already entered on our User Voice platform. You can find it here.
It looks like the feature could make it into Ranorex soon.
I would recommend that you place your vote and leave a comment on our user voice platform.
Meanwhile, you unfortunately cannot use the same name for different smart folders and test cases.
Sincerely,
Tomaž

Re: Multiple smart folders with same name?
Oh gosh, yes please. I've already voted for that one it seems. I ended up exploiting multiple Test Suites to work around clashes in the folder namespace at least a little bit. But within a test context it's often still a problem, yes.
