Well open the Spy tool and start identifying.

If you have an issue you should describe it here. What is the exact problem you are facing currently?

Some reading regarding SAP automation: http://www.ranorex.com/forum/spy-can-t- ... t8446.html

And as it uses flash, you should read this as well: http://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gui ... sting.html

I would like to know how to connect to Oracle DB and SAP HANA DB. Does ranorex support SAP DB?
1) Also i am trying to run a query in oracle DB and store the result in a variable called var1
2) Capture the similar data from UI dashboard and store in Var2
3) compare the result var1==var2
4) report result

UI attached in earlier post.

Hello tell2srik,

Regarding the support for SAP HANA DB, I'm afraid that there is no out-of-the-box support, but since Ranorex is based on C# you should be able to connect to your DB using your own implementation (user code).

http://scn.sap.com/community/developer- ... na-using-c

Once you established the connection, you should be able to store the values to module variables. Further information can be found here: http://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gui ... dules.html

Also, the comparison and reporting can be done within your user code. Many samples and further guidance can be found here: http://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gui ... mples.html

Cheers,
Robin
