Re: Issues with ReportToPDF

I believe you need to add the lines of code that call the PDF writer in the Program.cs file. The report must be finished before it can be transformed, and it isn't finished if the test suite is still being executed. Therefore, you can't put it in the test suite at all, it must be in Program.cs, aft...

Issues with ReportToPDF

Hello all, I have added the DLL to my project, and set the compile version. Additionally, I have added the ReportToPDF.CS to my project. I have added a tear-down step to an existing test and added the CS module to it. When ran, no PDF is generated and in the tear-down step, no output is given as see...

Failed to Instrument Java process

Hello all, We use Ranorex against a Java based web application (Oracle Forms and Reports 11g hosted on Fusion Middleware.) My tests work, but every run gets the following warning: JAVA AWT/Swing: Failed to instrument Java process. Please make sure you have enough privileges to access the process. I ...

Right. I was just clarifying why I can't just install the client to others.

When you use that tag for the report ouput, does it email all those files, or how does that work?

Re: Ranorex Report Viewer on any PC

I should mention that the people getting this particular set of reports are not QA/Dev folks. I took an INCREDIBLY manual workflow and built an automated process around it. The reports are sent to business stakeholders. For this reason, and for the reason of only having one premium and one runtime l...

Re: Ranorex Report Viewer on any PC

Hi Wes, Have you tried to run the viewer exe? I mean instead of double clicking rxzlog file? I guess it will not start as well? Running exe files from network drives is always problematic. I believe you need to set some security things, disable uac, etc. There is plenty of topics on that subject di...

Re: Ranorex Report Viewer on any PC

I tried this, and would have preferred this, but I couldn't get it to work either. The tests are being executed from Jenkins so I only see the report.html file go out. When opened, this shows: "Data file (UCF_Data_Validation-15.html.data) or transformation file is missing." Is there a way to get tha...

Ranorex Report Viewer on any PC

Hello all, I placed Ranorex.Controls.dll, Ranorex.core.dll, Ranorex.Libs.dll, and Ranorex.ReportViewer.Exe in a folder on network storage and gave access to appropriate users. I have set up file association for rxzlog files to open with this report viewer. When they open a report, a process spawns i...

Post Run Results Query

Hello All, I have found some things that kind of address my issue, but it still wasn't clear how to accomplish what I am about to describe. I am using Ranorex, in this project, to automate a form input recursively. Think of it as an automated data input and processing tool, for this. Basically, we u...

Re: PopUpWatcher Issues

OK. I figured out a work around. I ended up adding the two (seemingly the same) warning message to my repository and I reference the repo items rather than explicitly having the xpath in the user code. Seems to be working now.

Hello all, I have a major issue with the Ranorex PopUpWatcher class. It seems that a pop up with identical appearance and identical button, text, and title have different accessible attributes. On one page, it works fine using @title="..." in the xPath. In the other, I must use @AccessibleName="..."...

Re: Testing against multiple instances of application

Hi there, I would like to add another suggestion. I personally don't like using variables at DOM level. As mentioned by Kelly, using variable in DOM element means that you will see this variable in every recording module and you will have to bind it to the data source or parameter. Another way is t...

Re: Testing against multiple instances of application

You don't need to use wildcards, necessarily, but you should look into data-driven testing. In this case, I would change the path to: BASE: /dom[@domain=$myDomain] This will create a repository (repo) variable named myDomain. Any repo element that you use in your test module that is a descendant of...
