Is it possible to rename the Ranorex Test Suite, of an existing solution that has test cases, modules, etc?

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm not quite sure if simple rename of test suite via Studio GUI replace all occurrences of old name? I think the easiest and most efficient way is to replace old name with new one via a good text editor (via "search and replace in file" option).

Thanks for that odklizec , it is a little time consuming (at least the way I did it, file by file in Notepad++) but it did work. One small additional step I had to implement, to deal with an "unexpected error creating debug information file" error, was to delete the "bin" and "obj" folders and then rebuild the solution.

Thanks again!

You don't have to do it file by file. In Notepad++ there is a feature "Find in Files..." (menu Search >> Find in Files...). With this you can not only find, but also replace a string in all files in defined folder. And of course, you have to rebuild the solution after such radical change.

Thanks for the tip odklizec, that is helpful and would save a lot of time.

Trying to convince myself that sometimes it is better to do it the hard way first

In this case, I think the easy way is to use Notepad++ as Pavel suggested.
