How to validate sorting using Ranorex studio recording

Hello,

I am trying to validate that a custom column has been sorted after clicking on the header.

is it possible to validate sorting?

Hi,

I'm afraid, it's impossible to tell what to do without seeing, at very least, a Ranorex snapshot (NOT screenshot) of the given column. However, I'm quite sure that "sorting" is not something, that could be validated just via recording. It will most probably require some coding too?

Please post the snapshot, ideally, taken before and after sorting, so we can evaluate it and eventually suggest a solution. Thanks.

Hello Pavel,

Thank you for the Reply,

I don't have a current test for sorting, I am collecting possible testing scenarios where I will be using Ranorex and needed to know if that can be supported using Ranorex or not.

Thank you

Hi,

You can do almost anything you want with Ranorex, but not everything is possible via recordings. but as mentioned, we would need more information regarding the sorted column and exact scenario/validation requirements.
