Hello,
Does Remote Agent has functionality to update test results in TestRail?

Hi Syartsev,

The agent itself doesn't have such a functionality.
However, since Ranorex 8.3 you can run tests on a Ranorex Agent via commandline by using the argument: /agent:<name of the agent>
Additionally, there is a command line argument for reporting results to testrail. You can find it here.

So all in all you should be able to use the commandline for running the test on an agent and report the test results to TestRail.

regards, qwertzu

Hi qwertzu,

I am using Ranorex 8.2 for my test, and i am not able to find agent in the command line argument.

Will it be possible to post the result to testrail after execution on Remote Agent using Studio.

Hi,

In order to execute a test on an agent via command line, you need the following argument:

/agent:"<agent name>"

For posting the results on TestRail via command line, you need at least these three arguments:

/testrail
/truser
/trpass

An easy way to find out the exact command line arguments for reporting to your test rail project, would be simply clicking on the "Run test and report to TestRail" button in Ranorex.

The window appearing afterwards, will show you the command line statement:

The command line arguments are described here: https://www.ranorex.com/help/latest/ran ... earguments

Hi,

Because Ranorex remote agent command line support has been added in 8.3, you are out of luck with Ranorex 8.2. The only solution is to update Ranorex with most recent 8.3.3 or 9.0.
