Application Not Loading in recording section

Post by amitgupta » Fri Apr 30, 2021 9:14 am

Dear Team,

After doing instructional wizard application under tools , I am getting application in my android mobile phone but not displaying application in loading section after clicking 'Record' button .I can see that my mobile is successfully connected with ranorex and can see icon in ranorex.

Without recording , When I add action for run application , then I was able to execute the script for launching meridian app but i was not able to record script for mobile android application because application didn't load in recording section.

Could you please have a look on below screen shot for better understanding and help me for the same?

Thanks and Regard
Amit Gupta

Hi,

As far as I remember, "recording" mobile apps has been removed in Ranorex 8.0? You need to track and add the xpaths and actions manually. But take me with caution. I'm not automating mobile apps ;) I just remember it was removed and 8.0 release notes says so (Recording on mobile devices discontinued).

Hi,

The only way how to find xptahs on mobile devices is Ranorex Spy. Please follow the steps described in the User Guide:
https://www.ranorex.com/help/latest/web ... ildthetest
Basically, if you click a mobile element in Ranorex Spy preview window, there should be displayed xpath for given element and element tree should be expanded and scrolled into view. If there is no correct element found (e.g. due to an overlay window over UI), you will have to find the element in question by expanding and scrolling the element tree in Spy and finding the element manually.
