Running user code module in side recording module

[pansujit]

Hello,
Is it possible to run user code module inside recording module? suppose;
I have user code module ---------- abc.cs
recoding module --------------------def.rxrec
inside the "def.rxrec" I have user code----------xyz()
I want to run my "abc.cs" inside the "xyz".
IT has come to know me, that recording module can be run using recModuleName.start() but I don't know how to run the user code module.

Thanking you
Sincerely
Sujit Pandey

Hi Sujit,

I would recommend against starting any module from other modules. This will make it very difficult to read the current structure of the test suite, especially when debugging issues within your test script.

If you have methods that you want to reuse and share between different recording modules, I would suggest creating user code collections as described at the following link: http://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gui ... thods.html

I hope this will help you.

I would agree with jma, this is not the way to do things.

Ranorex also highly discourages starting test modules from inside other test modules.

The whole point of making modules is so that everything is self contained and you can then just drag-and-drop the modules where you need them in the test suite.

You should be making your modules as small as possible and limit their functionality to as few actions as possible (ideally just one atomic action). This will allow for greater reuse and ease maintenance.
