Validation in Windows Event Logs
Posted: Tue Jul 24, 2012 12:24 pm
I have an automated Ranorex solution which installs a large SW package, I then validate certain file locations etc. I also want to be able to use Ranorex to validate that there are no errors in the windows event log before it proceeds with my baseline verification tests.
I want to know the best way of doing this, the problem I have is that it needs to work across multiple O/S from Win XP to Win 7 and Server 2008R2.
Is there a way to read the content of the log files direct, without having to navigate the GUI for the event viewer (which is different on different O/S)
Open to suggestions if you have done anything like this before, I'm not sure how to approach it.....
