Ranorex Forum

Greetings.
As a Ranorex "newbie", I would like to know how to migrate (copy) a recorded Module from one Ranorex Solution (on a local PC) to another Solution (on a Virtual Machine). in other words, we have a working "Login" script on our local machine, and want to run this same script on a VM, without needing to re-record the same exact functionality. Thank you.

Hi Steve,

In order to copy a file to a Ranorex Solution you can use the context menu in the project view.
In this context menu select "Add Existing Item.." Select the desired module and confirm the dialog.
In the next dialog select "Copy repository to project" The module and the corresponding repository were copied to the new solution.

The only prerequisite is that you can access the file.

Marcus,
Thank you for your detailed reply. Would this also apply across physical/virtual machines? (In other words, I wanted to copy a working recorded module from my local machine to a virtual machine.)

Hi Steve,

Yes, of course. As my colleague mentioned, you just need access to the file. In your case you would need a shared folder or a server which can be accessed from both your local machine as well as the virtual machine in order to exchange the file.

Robert
