Ranorex Forum

Hi Ranorex Team,

I've got a problem using variables within the repository:

During test execution a new form (formA) appears with a variable name.
For this I created a variable within the repository:
formA: /form[@name = $variable]

Within a Code Module I set the value of the $variable to the expected value:
repo.variable = "value";

The verification if this form exists works correctly:
repo.formA.formAInfo.Exists()

Within the formA there is in the titlebar the cross to close this window.
If I try to click the Close-Button, I got following error message:

Failed to find item Repository.FormA.TitleBar.ButtonClose'. The folder Repository.FormA.TitleBar' was not found. No element found for path 'titlebar[@automationid='TitleBar']' within 30s.

If I set the expected value for the actual testcase directly within the repository (no use of variable within the repository, it works correctly.

Why is it not possible to access the close-Button? It seams possible to access the form, so why not the button?

I hope you can help me quickly...

Thanks in advance

Anja

P.S: I'm currently working with Ranorex Studio 3.1.2.14812

Hi,

I tried to reproduce the issue but it is running as expected. Would it be possible to post us your repository to check it? Even better would be a small sample application with a Ranorex Project.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

it is not possible for me to provide a sample application... I've attached a small repository containing only the form, where I got the problems... Additionally I attached the code module with additional comments for you, where my problems occure... I hope this will help you to analyse this problem...

Thank you in advance for your help.
