Ranorex Studio delivers robust object recognition for any web technology—making your tests resilient, reliable, and reusable.
To make your web tests reliable, you need industry-leading object recognition and identification. Ranorex Studio uniquely identifies UI elements with the powerful and flexible RanoreXPath syntax, which is capable of handling even dynamic elements. Because the RanoreXPath uses technology-specific attributes and operators, your automated web tests are more robust and resilient against layout changes. Use Ranorex Studio, and reap more benefits:
Ranorex Studio recognizes and supports a broad variety of web technologies and frameworks. Test hybrid desktop applications that are based on the open-source Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF), automate HTML5 tests, and test Java and JavaScript websites—including Salesforce, SAP, Flash and Flex applications, and more.
Many web applications generate dynamic IDs for web elements. Since these IDs are regenerated every time an element is displayed, they aren’t reliable for automated testing. The Ranorex Spy tool makes it possible to analyze your application and apply predefined rules for stable identification of elements with dynamic IDs.
Handling timing issues can be challenging when testing dynamic web applications. In Ranorex Studio, you can create a search time-out for each repository item, or add actions to wait for an element or page to appear or disappear. You don’t have to manually implement wait-for mechanisms in code, and can simply use the predefined actions.
Automate your tests, then execute them across multiple browsers and browser versions for fast feedback from testing.
High-quality web applications perform flawlessly on all popular browsers—and multiple versions of those browsers. But repeating your test cases across different browsers can be tedious and time-consuming. Automated cross-browser testing, testing ensures consistency and fast feedback. Simply automate your test cases, and then let Ranorex Studio execute them against popular browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Microsoft Edge.
Test your web application on multiple devices and technologies with confidence.
Even simple web applications may have dozens of visual elements, data entry fields and controls to test, with hundreds of test cases needed to attain the desired code coverage. In addition, you need to check the UI for possible visual regressions and verify responsiveness to various screen sizes and resolutions. With Ranorex Studio, you can create automated web tests that are reusable across devices, and create tests that combine a variety of desktop, web and mobile technologies including non-HTML5 elements such as Java applets and PDF files.
One of the biggest challenges in test automation is handling web elements with dynamic IDs. In earlier versions of Ranorex Studio, the solution has been to set up path weight rules that disregard dynamic IDs in favor of stable attributes.
With the introduction of machine learning for dynamic IDs in release 9.0, there is no longer a need to rely on weight rules. Ranorex Studio’s machine-trained algorithm can detect dynamic IDs in your web elements and disregard them, choosing other, more stable attributes to uniquely identify each element. Your web tests are easier to create and more reliable. Of course, release 9.0 respects any existing weight rules, and you can enter new path weight rules if desired.
Ranorex Studio versions 9.0 and later automatically identifies elements within a shadow DOM. A shadow DOM is supported by the Chrome, Firefox, and Safari browsers, as well as Chromium-based Edge (79 and onwards). Use of a Shadow DOM is required for some modern JS frameworks such as Polymer and Web Components. With Ranorex Studio 9.0, your test automation can be ready for it!
JxBrowser is a cross-platform library for integration of the Chromium browser into Java applications. Ranorex Studio was the first test automation solution to offer support for the JxBrowser with no need for manual instrumentation of your AUT. If you aren’t a current Ranorex Studio user, download a free trial to experience test automation for your Java application with the JxBrowser.
Get an all-in-one solution for desktop, mobile, and web app testing, with easy-to-use record-and-replay automation plus a full IDE.
You can easily automate any type of web application test with Ranorex Studio. Testing doesn’t have to be time-consuming and complicated. Using Ranorex Studio, you can perform efficient and reliable web test automation with minimal effort. If you prefer script-free test automation, you’ll enjoy using the Capture & Replay functionality within the Ranorex Recorder to record and edit web test actions. You’d like to customize test suites and recordings? Write and edit automated web tests using the C# or VB.NET APIs.
Create mobile web tests from scratch or simply reuse existing web tests to replay them across popular browsers. Since Ranorex Studio utilizes the open-source tool Appium to automate testing of native browsers, you can test your website in mobile browsers such as Safari on iOS or Chrome on Android.
Built-in modules and user code actions in Ranorex Studio help you to effortlessly handle complex operations, such as dealing with unexpected pop-ups from your web framework, browser dialogs, or JavaScript alert boxes.
Easily separate the test automation process from test case design, and group test parts into readily understandable keywords—such as login, setup, and save. These reusable modules are browser-independent, which decreases test maintenance effort and increases efficiency.
Some essential web elements can make or break the success of your website or web application: Ensure they always work as expected! With just a few clicks, you can effortlessly insert validations in your tests, and define the requirements an element has to fulfill for the test to pass.
Send your web tests to remote machines to run them in multiple environments in parallel with Ranorex Remote. You can continue working on your local machine in the meantime, and will receive an automatic notification once the test has been executed and the report is ready.
Get fast, high-quality feedback on the impact of software changes on the application under test by integrating Ranorex test automation projects in your CI system. The resulting JUnit-compatible Ranorex report provides you with detailed information on every test run.
Address common Selenium pain points with the powerful Ranorex Studio test automation framework.
Ranorex Studio directly integrates Selenium WebDriver on a plug-in level and makes WebDriver part of its core API. Developers and testers alike can not only trigger existing Selenium tests, but can also create web tests based on the Selenium WebDriver standard using the many Ranorex Studio tools—as well as address common Selenium WebDriver pain points such as page object mapping, time-out handling and maintaining web elements.
Distribute web tests across multiple browsers and operating systems at the same time, using in-house or cloud-based Selenium Grid implementations, such as Sauce Labs.
Leverage Selenium’s unparalleled platform and browser support and run web tests created in Ranorex Studio across all Selenium-supported platforms and browsers, including Linux and macOS.
Use Ranorex Spy to instantly automate even dynamic UI elements and handle synchronization issues. Easily manage all web UI elements in a central object repository to benefit from built-in page object mapping.
Ranorex Studio simplifies complex web test automation by providing a no-code/low-code environment that empowers both beginners and advanced testers to quickly build robust tests. With powerful object recognition, cross-browser support, and built-in tools like Selocity, it makes identifying and interacting with web elements seamless. Automated test creation is further streamlined through features like smart recording, reusable code modules, and integration with popular CI/CD tools. This end-to-end approach reduces testing complexity, shortens release cycles, and boosts overall QA productivity.
