Trying to enable Flex testing for Chrome

Stian · Post by **Stian** » Tue Jan 31, 2012 1:54 pm

My test is running fine on IE, FIrefox and Safari.
It starts out good for Chrome, but when it comes to handling the Flex it fails.

I have used the Instrumentation and disabled Flash (not the debug Flash) - see image below:

ChromePlugins.JPG

The Ranorex Spy just doesn't recognize elements inside the Flex.

Any tips?

Hi,

does this issue happen only on one specific site or on every flash/flex app?
Please try to identify elements on our flash/flex example pages:
Flash/Flex Examples
Also have a look at your log file located at "%AppData%\Macromedia\Flash Player\Logs" (you have to enable the log file creation during technology instrumentation) and check if there is any Ranorex specific content within it.

Hi there Tobias!

Spy worked perfectly fine on Chrome for all your Flex elements.

It does not work for the Flex on our webpage (on Chrome).

Here is the log trace:

I'm getting a similar error message for all the Flexes when trying to Spy them in Chrome.

Hi,

can you please also provide us the same log output when opening your web application with Internet Explorer?

Thanks.

Hi,

Thank you for posting us the logs. I've talked to the related developer and he requests two snapshots of your application. One of chrome and one of IE. How to create a Snapshot.
Even better would be to access your application. Is this possible?
Did you try to use the "classic" instrumentation mode? With this method there shouldn't be a problem.

If you are not allowed to post your snapshots or app URL in our forum, you can send us this information to our support mail. ([email protected])

Thank you Peter!

I sent you the snapshots via email and I'll have a look at the "classic" instrumentation mode as soon as I got time - busy day today
