Ranorex Forum

Thanks for the quick reply.
I'll see what I can do about the pixel colour

Hello, I know that Ranorex supports DevExpress suite, my question is very similar to this one: http://www.ranorex.com/forum/finding-the-colour-of-a-cell-in-an-infragistics-grid-t1030.html though as opposed to Infragistics, DevExpress should be recognizable. Also, I can't modify the code in the appli...

OK, there's some progress in this case: I'm now able to run the automated test from a remote machine using psexec, the Ranorex exe identifies the controls in the form and everything works great. HOWEVER, I found the culprit that won't let me do so in a real development environment. Right now I'm usi...

I'm using XP Pro SP3. I've also disabled the security suite on that machine just to be sure.

I actually had this piece of code in my Ranorex main for the complete test.
I used it to verify whether the app is already running or not, in case of it not running I would then launch it.
The launching part works fine (as it was before) but it still fails identifying any component in the form

Really appreciate the effort, but still no luck...

In my very basic test I've created, psexec calls the compiled Ranorex (executable) to run directly i.e. psexec -i -u username -p password -w "c:\Directory of exe" "C:\Directory of exe\test.exe" As you can see i'm using the -i -u -p and now the -w flags with psexec; The user I've tested with is the s...

That was a nice attempt but alas, it didn't work.
Prior to even trying to remote execute anything with Ranorex I've read your posts on using psexec.
I'm guessing you haven't encountered any issues like I have, right?

Unfortunately this (and some other tools I've tried such as LS Ex) don't work - they just launch the process but nothing really happens.

Thank you.
If you know of some other ways this can be done (i.e. not with psexec) I could try that.

Well, better news - using the working directory flag (w) now helps in that the test actually generates the report. However the test continue failing as Ranorex complains it can't find the maskbox item within the specified timeout period. I've even increased the timeout from 10s to 20s (the form is o...

thanks, but I do use the -i flag.
It is in fact the exact same psexec command with just the path being different from a Ranorex sample and this sample.

Hello, I've read the guidelines in the forum for executing Ranorex test from a remote machine (i'm using psexec). However, the strangest thing is happening: Running the built-in Ranorex samples (i.e. calculator, etc.) from a remote machine (with no Ranorex runtime) to be ran on a Ranorex runtime mac...

Thanks,
Increasing the timeout for that element did resolve the issue. The question to ask is why does it take longer to search for element when running as a compiled exe as opposed to the test "playing".
Nonetheless, this resolve my issue. Thanks again for the quick response!

I'm struggling to understand what's going wrong as it seems nothing on my part is wrong. The scenario is as follows: I've created a recording, at first without any user code in it. When playing the recording (clicking the green Play button in the rxrec file), the commands are being processed as expe...
