Unable to automate: Ranorex - Object property ID is missing
Posted: Wed Aug 21, 2013 6:04 am
Description:We are facing technical challenges, while automating the test cases with Test shell using Ranorex. Which is mentioned below:
Ranorex major works on two parameters to identify an object in an application “object property IDs” (which are always unique for each object) and “inner text of the object” (This can be same for two or more objects). But in application to which we are automating, objects do not contain property IDs (Object property IDs are missing) but contains only inner text.
So if two different objects on same page have same inner text, then Ranorex is unable to differentiate both and click on the object , which comes first on same page.
Kindly suggest how to identify these objects.
