Validate a string of text in an output file

Post by dbanker77 » Thu Apr 06, 2017 9:49 pm

new to Ranorex. Recording a test that produces an output file. I need to verify a few words in the file. Is there an easy way to do this? My coding experience is non-existent and scripting skills very limited.

Hi,

I'm afraid, without seeing the file and knowing what exactly you would like to validate, there is not much anyone here can do or suggest. Generally speaking, you will most probably have to use some code to validate the text. I'm sure you can google-out many .net-based code samples and techniques for text comparison. And I believe the file validation has been discussed also here?
