Test.exe crashes while running

[hghesani]

I have a test case which waits for different pop ups to occur in a loop by using PopupInfo.Exists() , once the pop up occurs, it randomly selects the buttons to click from set of buttons with a range of control ids. While running the test , .exe file for this test stops working and crashes. I wanted to know what could be the potential reasons for this ? It does not happen all the time.

I have already tried extending the adapter.functionexecutiontimeout in the config xml located in the %appdata% folder.

Hi,

I'm afraid, it's impossible to suggest anything reasonable without seeing your test, AUT, Ranorex version and test environment and crash/trace logs. Are you using most recent Ranorex? If you are using anything older than 9.0.1 or 9.1.0, please update Ranorex and check if the problem persists?

Also, it would be useful to see the windows crash log (if there is any crashlog in Windows event log) and of course, Ranorex trace logs. You can find the path to Ranorex tracelog in Ranorex settings (set log level to Trace). Then simply run your test and once it crashes, examine the log at specified location. Hope this helps?

Hi

I ran the test case through the rxtst file, should still be looking at the RanorexStudio logs ? Or would the Test.log for the test.exe be the relevant log file ?

Thanks

Hi,

If you are running test outside Ranorex studio, there should be created corresponding log for your test.exe.

Hi

I finally got the logs for the crash. This is what I see just before the crash :

2019-07-17 07:40:03.724| INFO|Ranorex.Report|User: Identifying a random button to click
2019-07-17 07:40:39.334|DEBUG|Ranorex.Core.LicensingConfiguration+LicensingNLogLogger|Will create dual mode TCP client.

at Accessibility.IAccessible.get_accChild(Object varChild)

After this it crashes, and there is nothing else that is generated.
Please let me know what you think.

Thanks

Hello Hghesani,

Based on the provided information it is difficult to determine the cause of the issue. If the application is truly crashing there will be entries in the windows event viewer. I would start there and provide a copy for analysis. Also, do you see the same behavior if you run your test from Ranorex Studio?

A quick guide on how to get the application crash logs in windows event viewer - https://www.cyberlink.com/support/faq-c ... o?id=10449

I can confirm that it crashes because I see the window, which says test.exe is not responding. I will try to get the crash logs.

The following is the info from the event viewer :

Faulting application name: SemiAutomationTests.exe, version: 1.0.7110.27612, time stamp: 0x5d0bea89
Faulting module name: clr.dll, version: 4.6.1590.0, time stamp: 0x5787ef69
Exception code: 0xc0000005

There are two events reported at the same time. this is the second one :

Description: The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime at IP 000007FEF22EF7C2 (000007FEF22E0000) with exit code 80131506.



Please let me know if you need anything else

Hello Hghesani,

The exception code thrown is due to a Memory Access Violation, I recommend running in debug mode to analyze your code to see where the exception is being thrown - https://www.ranorex.com/help/latest/ran ... debugging/

Alternatively, if you would like for us to investigate this issue privately please create a support query here https://www.ranorex.com/support-query/ including all relevant information and a copy of your solution.

Hi Sean

The issue happens intermittently and the build used here is 64 bit. I am not sure if ranorex supports debugging in 64 bit. Additionally, if I was to get the location where this crash happens by using logging instead of debugging would that help ?

What are the other reasons memory access violations can occur ?
