Ranorex Forum

I’m working on testing an application which have DevExpress grids built on HTML5 and wrapped in Openfin container. My question is – does Ranorex 6.0.1 support Openfin ?

Due to security reasons I cannot share much info about the application. All I can say is I’ve tried many things to make this work like Adding class to GDI capture List, etc but nothing worked. Ranorex Spy only gives me same element controlid even if I click on any button/textbox on that grid.

Is there any tweak that I can do to make this work ?

Thanks for suggestions

Hi diwakar,

Please try to start your executable file with the following flag.
--force-renderer-accessibility

Therefore, create a shortcut of your *.exe file and go to the properties.
In the "shortcut"-tab there is a section called "Target". Just add the flag above and click "OK".
Afterwards, please run your application and Ranorex Studio with administrator privileges and try if you can identify the elements. Maybe you will have to navigate through the tree in spy to find all elements.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Thank you for the reply.

I was able to make this work. Here is what I did :

Changed runtime settings in OpenFin app config file as following:

"runtime": { "arguments": "--force-renderer-accessibility --load-extension=ranorex_extension_directory", "version": "alpha" },

Unzip the contents to a folder named "ranorex_extension_directory" and place that folder in Openfin directory.

Start your application again and you can use Ranorex Spy to see internal elements now.

Thanks,
Diwakar
