Test Cases and Modules

I have a number of regression tests that I use for system integration testing of the application under test. The AUT is a large system, and comprised of a number of sub-systems. The regression tests that I have test that the subsystems have been integrated properly. The regression tests may be a hun...

Re: Extracting a string from a treeview - use RanorexPath?

Hi Odklizec, my employer will not allow me to create a Ranorex snapshot, but I can show you the RanorexPath. In the path below, the values of '10000', '20000' and 'TEXTSTRING' are example values. /form[@title>'[T.I.B] MyApp']/container[@controlid='10000']/form[@controlid='20000']//tree[@class='TreeV...

Extracting a string from a treeview - use RanorexPath?

I have a dialog which contains a treeview. The treeview contains a tree item which has a long string. I want to extract part of this string to use in validation at a later point in the test. How do I access the string, and assign it to a variable? Do I use the RanorexPath? I am not currently familia...

Re: Accessing VB6 UI item

Hi Jacob, thank you very much for your help, it's much appreciated! MSAA does seem to be the way to deal with the MSFlexGridWndClass. I've got workarounds (tabbing and arrow keys), so I can get my automated test to work, but ideally the automated test will recognise the content of the UI elements it...

Accessing VB6 UI item

Hello, I have an application which is partly implemented in Visual Basic 6. The item I'm trying to read data from (text values in cells in a data grid) is a MSFlexGridWndClass. Even with GDI, I can't drill down deeper to see the data cell contents. I'm trying various approaches to see if this can be...

Build options

In the Ranorex Studio Build menu, there are options to Build Solution (F8), and also Build the Ranorex project (F9). Could someone explain this to me please? I'm interested in what circumstances require the F8 option as opposed to the F9 option, and also if building the solution also builds the Rano...

Re: Checkbox not found, keyboard deactivates during test on VM

Thank you both for your advice. The Invoke Action does not seem to find the checkbox. Also, when I commented out the line in Program.cs and ran the test, the keyboard was still disabled afterwards. Mouse clicks work, but in Notepad I typed in letters but they did not appear on the screen. If I typed...

Checkbox not found, keyboard deactivates during test on VM

Hello, I’m running a test on an application on my virtual machine. During the test, two wizards are stepped through. Each wizard has a set of windows that are progressed through by clicking on a ‘Next’ button. The first window in each wizard has a radio button, and then the next window has a checkbo...

Generating a new test by recording the running of an old one

The company I work for has a large number of tests in automation tools that are no longer supported e.g. Rational Robot, and need replacing with a Ranorex test that exercises the same functionality. Can a test in an obsolete tool be run while Ranorex is recording, so as to speed up the re-implementa...

Page Object Model use with Repository

Hello, At work we have hitherto been using Coded UI to carry out our automated testing. We moved away from the difficult-to-maintain UI Maps and introduced the Page Object Model instead. Now that we are moving away from Coded UI and intending to use Ranorex Studio instead, I am wondering how relevan...
