Re: Ranorex WebDriver API for desktop automation?

Your point is well taken. In my opinion, life is not perfect, there is no perfect solution, and in that aspect, there is still room for a good enough solution that compromises between our two points. It wouldn't be perfect nor satisfy everyone, but I think it can be good enough to be useful to a sub...

Re: Ranorex WebDriver API for desktop automation?

The point of this discussion is not merging 2 tools together (whether one is the dominant tool vs the other or not), but rather giving automators more choice/options in how they automate. One thing I dislike for automation tools in general is each has their own custom API and maybe object identifica...

Ranorex WebDriver API for desktop automation?

I made a post a long time ago that has since been locked: https://www.ranorex.info/thoughts-on-a-ranorex-webdriver-t7423.html, or else I could resume discussion there. I see since my post, Ranorex has added support for Selenium/Webdriver integration, but only for web UI automation (from using Seleni...

Thoughts on a Ranorex WebDriver?

Just wondering whether it would interest anyone to use and/or build a WebDriver API / JSONWireProtocol compatible interface to Ranorex that can be called/used by any WebDriver client language binding. Here's some example's for other tools: https://github.com/daluu/AutoItDriverServer https://github.c...

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

It's nice to see/know that we've now a more integrated/official keyword driven testing solution for Ranorex as mentioned in this other thread :D :

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

please provide some demo and walkthrough that was just explained . Thank you, Beginner Suggest you take a look at RobotFramework.org, read their user guides and quick start. For .NET support for that, check these out: http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/wiki/DotNetSupport code.google.com/p/shar...

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

My advice if your going to do this is write you action classes implementing a common interface. You can then develop a small GUI to load all your actions from a DLL, and you can place your action sequence into a DataGrid, and use a PropertyGrid to set the action parameters. Make it all serialisable...

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

To me keyword frameworks are a thing of the past... (when automation had to be "dumbed down" to non programmers) Good points atom, I'll keep that in mind for future automation work. But a few points to note: A keyword framework also allows you to include non-programmers into the testing and develop...

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

It will be very helpful if somebody explain what are these code doing. Thanks Beginner On a high level, here's a summary: the code simplifies using Ranorex to write tests using keywords. Ranorex functionality like click some button, type text into field, verify text or state of some field is encaps...

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

Thanks for sharing artur. Would be great if someone next spent the time to build a generic Robot Framework keyword library that will let you perform all the Ranorex UI operations w/o having to customize their own library for Robot. Something similar in API to Robot Framework's SeleniumLibrary or Aut...

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

I have made a small proof of concept project that uses RobotFramework and Iron Python to execute Ranorex code. Reporting needs a bit of ironing out but other than that everything seems to look fine. That's great artur, I don't suppose you can share the prototype with the public? Would be nice to me...

Re: Ranorex integration with Robot Framework?

FYI, I posted to SharpDevelop forum and seems there might be some confusion about dropping IronPython support. While Ranorex might be dropping it, doesn't seem like it is being dropped from SharpDevelop: http://community.sharpdevelop.net/forums/p/12728/34558.aspx#34558 Also wanted to note, that even...

Re: Ranorex integration with Robot Framework?

That's too bad. Python is pretty cool.

Why the drop? No/small user base that is using the IronPython support in Ranorex? Or because IronPython not officially or well supported by Microsoft as a true Microsoft language/product? Or some limitations with IronPython for Ranorex's new feature roadmap?

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

Nice solution by the way, looks like it could be adapted for other purposes or other test tools like MS UI Test, NUnit?, webAii/Silverlight testing, etc.

Re: Keyword Driven Testing with Ranorex

One might want to look at Robot Framework for Ranorex keyword-driven testing. Robot Framework itself is keyword-driven and now works with IronPython for .NET support, so it can integrate with or use Ranorex. However, it might be some amount of work, until some implements a generic Ranorex test libra...
