Almost identical reports - but one doesn't display text
Posted: Tue Jul 10, 2012 3:27 pm
Hi,
I am currently doing a project, where python calls a DLL, which is produced using C#. That DLL produces a Ranorex Report. I'm upploading 2 reports that have been produced using exactly same code.
I have currently reduced the code to only setup a report, start a suite, case, module, post debug+info messages , log a result and close module, case. (the rest of the code got commented out to make sure it has nothing to do with it).
One report has been produced with logging "Success" as a result, the other one - "Failure". The problem is that the one which passes, doesn't display any info/debug messages, but if i set result to "failure" - all information is displayed correctly.
I have analyzed the two reports with notepad: they look pretty much identical, except that the result is different.
A bit more on code:
DLL contains a single, simple C# class. Python calls the constructor of the class and then calls a method in the class. The setup of Ranorex report + start of suite is done in constructor; opening, closing case/module and posting happens in the method. I have tried setting that method to STA, but didn't change anything.
Finally, I have created a new solution in Visual studio with 2 projects: class library and console application. Class library has exactly same class as the project i'm currently working on. Console then initializes this class and calls the method. In this case, if i set the result to "success" - the report is displayed correctly.
Please let me know if you have any further questions. And if you have any idea for why there's a difference in the way the report is displayed, depending on the result.
Kind regards,
Elena
