Keyboard Actions Are Not Active

Post by datbebong » Tue Apr 02, 2019 2:59 pm

Hi,

> We are trying to test a web application on Android Emulator Firexfox.
> While recording, the touch actions are getting recorded. However, the keyboard actions(typing something from the keyboard) is not getting recorded.
> We tried typing on the Android keypad also, but that's also not getting recorded.
> How do I record the keyboard actions while recording on Android Emulator?

Ranorex Version - 7.2.1
Android Emulator(Tablet) Version - Android 7.1.1
Firefox APK Version - Firexfox 48.0(API Level 15)

Immediate help would be much appreciated :D

Hi,

I'm afraid, Ranorex 7.x is way too old and no longer supported. A lot of things have changed since 7.2.1, including Android support, so there is no point to even consider debugging your problem with 7.x. Please try to reproduce your problem with the most recent (supported) Ranorex 8.3.3 or 9.0. Generally speaking, I believe you have to use SetValue action on Android, instead of key presses, which are not supported.
