How to Test Windows 8.1 app?
Posted: Fri May 30, 2014 4:36 pm
Hi All,
I thought this would 'just work' but it doesn't. I am trying to test an windows 8.1 app made by my company. It is installed on my own machine and works fine.
I opened up a new solution in Ranorex Studio - set it to 'General Recording' and started recording actions.
When I looked at what had been recorded I discovered that most things were missing.
An item had been created for the application - ComGroupcallEmerge
All the mouse clicks were linked to an item 'List1' and that was about it.
Having looked around for information on the correct way to record 8.1 apps I cant really find anything. I thought maybe this is like with mobile apps where you have to actually add the open application action to the test. but I don't know how I am supposed to identify the app I want to open I tried ComGroupcallEmerge and this didn't work.
Does Ranorex even support 8.1 apps? If so can someone please point me in the right direction to get started.
Many thanks
Ben
