If so, how do I modify the code to stop it from deleting/cleaning up the PDF files that were created during previous runs.

Re: How to schedule runs?

Yes that helps a lot, thank you.

I also found this to be useful: https://www.ranorex.com/help/latest/ran ... ex-studio/

Now I just need to write a script with our CI tool to schedule the run through command-line.

Thanks again.

Re: Where to download for existing customers?

Re: Coding in Ranorex

I have been playing with the Recorder, and what I'm understanding so far is that I can record actions, and behind each action there is source code in the background doing all the work, and I can modify the code to have this action make additional decisions if needed.
