Support for every Java technology

Ranorex Studio tools empower teams to automate tests for the full range of Java technologies, from Java applets in web browsers to standalone applications.

Supported Java technologies include:

  • 32-bit or 64-bit Java Runtime Environments (JRE)
  • AWT, SWT, and Swing libraries and UI controls
  • Java FX (version 2.0 and higher)
  • Mixed Java technologies, such as embedding JavaFX in Swing
  • JxBrowser 

Ranorex Studio includes automatically-enabled Java instrumentation that works right out of the box, with no need for manual instrumentation. The Ranorex Java plug-in supports applications built using one of the Java GUI widget toolkits, with native support for JavaFX (version 2.0 and higher) and SWT elements for increased object recognition stability.

Java GUI testing with Ranorex Studio

Choose a mature framework for rapid automation

Easily build maintainable automated tests for Java applications, with or without writing code.

Record and playback functional testing tool

Capture-and-replay for instant automation

Build sophisticated tests for Java applications without writing code, using Ranorex Studio’s powerful capture-and-replay functionality. Easily edit recorded actions, add text and image validations, set parameter values, and build data-driven or keyword-driven tests. Experience the benefits of test automation without the steep learning curve.

Development environment for coded test creation

Full IDE for maximum customization possibilities

For those who prefer to write tests in code, Ranorex Studio offers a full IDE to edit recordings or create custom tests entirely from scratch. Speed development with features like intelligent code completion, code templates, debugging functionalities, refactoring mechanisms and more. Store modules in the user code library to share with other development team members.

Reliable object recognition

Reliable GUI object recognition for stable tests

Matchless GUI object recognition helps speed up development and reduce the cost of test maintenance. Easily search for multiple UI elements, identify controls with specific attributes, recognize related elements by preceding- and following-sibling relationships, and more. Ranorex Studio can even handle web elements with dynamic IDs, using a machine-learned algorithm.

Efficient, modular tests

Modular and reusable test modules for efficiency

Ranorex Studio’s built-in testing process methodology guides testers to apply best practices that reduce test maintenance effort. Separate test data from test cases by using Excel files, CSV files, and SQL connectors. Set data values with local and global parameters. Build reusable code modules, search through them with the Ranorex Module Browser, then drag-and-drop them into test cases.
Integrate automated functional testing in development environments

Object repository for collaboration and reduced maintenance

The object repository manages all types of GUI elements and separates test objects from their RanoreXPath to make your automated tests easier to maintain. Simply drag-and-drop objects from the repository to use them in code modules. Give application elements user-defined names to make your tests more readable. Collaborate with other testers by sharing code modules and repository objects across projects.

Integrate automated functional testing in development environments

Integrations for a complete existing toolchain

Ranorex Studio provides public APIs so that it easily fits into your existing toolchain. Automatically trigger Ranorex Studio test runs from any continuous integration process including Jenkins, Hudson, or Bamboo. Produce JUnit-compatible test reports and submit testing results to issue tracking solutions such as JIRA and BugZilla. Use Git, TFS or SVN for source control of your automated tests.

Leverage the power of Selenium WebDriver

The leading open-source tool for cross-browser web application testing is built into the core of Ranorex Studio.

This means that you can develop Selenium tests for Java web applications with Ranorex Studio’s user-friendly interface, industry-leading capture-and-replay technology, full IDE and debugging tools. Avoid dealing with fragile selectors or debugging unstable tests directly in Selenium, and instead enjoy the benefits of scalable web testing in native browsers for Windows, macOS and Linux. Configure capabilities for Selenium nodes in JSON format using Ranorex Studio’s capabilities configurator. Use the Ranorex Parallel Runner to employ Selenium grids such as Sauce Labs, and execute tests on all Selenium-supported platforms.
