Ranorex Forum

Hi,

I'm using the Ranorex 2.1.4 Trial Version.

In my application, I have a form with 2 Windows.Forms.Textbox and a FlashAnimation. Using the Spy I found the 2 textbox and the flash animation. Inside flash animation I have 2 buttons and an area that shows some login issues (wrong user, wrong password), but I'm not obtaining to pick this area to make my validations.

Any suggestion will be helpfull.

Thanks,

Hector.

Hector,

Embedded Flash/Flex in Windows Forms is currently not supported.
Support has been added in the upcoming version 2.2, which will be released within two weeks.

This will only work, however, if you either instrument your flash application with the Ranorex library or use the RanorexLoader.swf (which is required for all flash/flex testing). Details can be found here:

Thanks for answer Michael. I read the User's Guide and I could not find how to use RanorexLoader in an WindowsForm. I got the new Trial Version (Ranorex 2.2) and i dont know how load the Flash Movies embedded in the application.

I'd like to know if have a way to use the loader, if I can where i need to call it.

in-waiting,

Hector

Hector,
The flash support for windows forms only works if the embedded SWF includes the RanorexAutomation.swc library. This requires the support of the developer which built your embedded application SWF.

You can find more information here:

In theory, the loader could also be used, but the application still has to be changed to include the loader instead of the original application:

Instead of using the url, you would have to set the flashvars to include "rxtarget" for the loader which points to your original swf.

Thanks again Michael,

I asked because I didn't want to change the original movie, then I'll tell to dev team to make 2 movies, 1 for tests and 1 for final application.

Gratefully,

Hector
