IOS Element does not have detailed object info.

Post by topcatalpha » Tue May 21, 2013 3:02 pm

Hi,

i have an app running and connected with ranorex (lib) and can record my actions on the iphone (using wifi).

When a playback, some of the elements are not known and playback fails.
So i tried to find the objects using the spy and found out that i have some elements calling : IosElement without any further objects.

The element does have 4 buttons, but they are not visible in the spy.
Can someone give me a tip how i can find them ?

regards,

Kurt

Hello,

I can see that there are many objects with the name IosElement in your image.
Is it possible to post a Ranorex snapshot file in order to analyze the issue in more detail?
Are you using some third party controls in your app?
Thank you!

Regards,
Bernhard

Hi Kurt,

I had a similar problem with labes in my app. In my case I forgot to set the accessebility labels for each label in my ios-app and all the labels had the same name in ranorex spy. I know that other testing tools craches if there are bunch of same elements in one view without setting the accessebility label.
