Hi,
we use Ranorex 6.2 and our AUT bases on Electron
The "Set value" action seems not to work ? I may insert text via "Key sequence" action but not by means of the "Set value"
With the former Framework SWT, Windows application, there were no problems
Does anyone has an idea how to do?
thx Hannes

Re: test web content based on Electron - set value
Hi,
Please upload a Ranorex Snapshot and tell us on which element you would like to perform a set value action.
maybe you set the value of the wrong attribute?

Re: test web content based on Electron - set value
I would highly recommend that you use Key Sequence and Key Shortcut actions, NOT Set Value.
Set Value should ONLY be used when the Key actions do not work. The problem is that Set Value does not fire any events that might be associated with the input element, keyboard typing, mouse location, etc., so it isn't the same as a user entering text. Your tests should be working in the same way a user would be using the system in order to ensure that the test is as accurate to the real process as possible.

Hi,
You should also consider trying to reproduce the problem with latest Ranroex 8.0 or previous 7.2.1. Ranorex 6.2 is way too old and no longer supported.
Additionally, if Electron is completely different GUI framework (than previously used SWT), then it may be hard to tell what's wrong without examining the AUT or at least a small sample app with problematic element (e.g. hello world app with simple input).

Re: test web content based on Electron - set value
thx - but we didn´t prolongate - so we have 6.2 only
Re: test web content based on Electron - set value
You can always try Ranorex 8 or 7.2.1 in trial mode. Just for the sake of test.

Re: test web content based on Electron - set value
Keeping a current license is the only way to ensure that you continue to get support, from Ranorex or from us, fellow customers. Most of us are on one of the latest two versions (7.2.1 or 8.0.0 as Pavel said), just for this reason.
So, try it with the trial version of either of the two latest versions and if that fixes your issue, then you know that you need to update your license.
