Knockout and Ranorex

Post by donrc$123 » Wed Dec 02, 2020 12:53 am

I know this is a pretty general question, but has anyone had experience using Ranorex on web pages coded with Knockout? Knockout generally has no id's for web objects and is generally a little harder to identify objects. I was just wondering if anyone has run across any tools or has any tips for working with Knockout in Ranorex.

Hey,

Can't you just add the id attributes to the elements in the view?

Kr,

we use knockout and I usually end up using the "data-" attributes to get me what I need in places where otherwise I'm stuck.

Code: Select all

//input[@type='text' and @data-bind~'value: addFirstName']

Thanks for the replies. I had some issues using the data-bind attribute, but maybe I just need to work with it some more. I appreciate the information.
