Ranorex Forum

I wish to get the machine name where RanorexStudio is running. I am running some tests on the Remote machine using Ranorex Agents. When I try Environment.machinename then I get the RanorexAgent machine name. Is there any way to get the Server name where RanorexStudio is installed? and which is sending commands to the Ranorex agent.

Hi,

I'm afraid that this not possible. There's definitely no API to get the "hostname" from the test run on the agent machine.

Cheers,

Hi,

I think the easiest way is to pass the name of server, from which you run the test, via command line parameter. Just create a Global parameter in your test suite, e.g. called 'serverName'. Then simply send the server name to test suite (either filled manually or obtained via hostname command) using Ranorex command line:
