Have you read the Ranorex User Guide, specifically the sections about iOS testing, as recommended by the error message? http://www.ranorex.com/support/user-gui ... sting.html

Also, I believe the MiniKeePass app has to be started manually. See the following post for more information: http://www.ranorex.com/forum/timeout-wh ... t6134.html

Hi i.matveev,

The original error stated that you had no debug session running, so Ranorex cannot start your app automatically you need to start it manually in advance.
After you started your instrumented app manually you should also see it in Ranorex Spy.

Regards,
Markus

Hi,

As mentioned before, and as is described in the user guide, did you select USB Debug Mode connection?

As has been stated several times before in this thread, the error you posted says that there is no debug session running on the system. You need to enable debugging on the device if you want Ranorex to launch the app for you. Otherwise you will need to launch the app manually and then let Ranorex find it.

Please read the error message and follow the suggestions on the links provided. If you don't follow those steps carefully then your app will not work with Ranorex.

I tried this mechanism. Start app on device (manual), then deploy. ERRROR!

I'm afraid, you need Mac and xCode in order to enable debug mode on iOS device. Here is description from user guide...
Debug Mode

In order to enable starting and stopping of the application under test on the device, it is necessary to establish a debug session. This can be accomplished by simply deploying any app to the device in debug scheme from Xcode. As long as the device is not restarted, the debug session will remain active.

Note: Only one debugger can be attached at a time. If you have problems with the debugger session, please try to close all open apps. If closing all apps does not help, restart the device and establish a debug session again, as described above.

In order to deploy the application under test from a Windows machine a USB connection is required. The app has to be built on a Mac and archived as an iOS App Store Package (IPA) file. Have a look at the section Create an iOS App Store Package to learn how such an IPA file can be created.
How I understand it, you just need to deploy the application (any application) from xCode, using debug profile. Once deployed, the device shoud stay in debug mode (until next device restart).
