Execute a recording from code on Ranorex

Question

Does anyone know how to execute a recording file (rxrec) from code (I am using C#)? I did look for examples and I couldn't find any.

Thanks!

Answer 1

In the standalone recorder (not in Ranorex Studio!!), you can export the recording to as an executable. You can call the EXE file in your code.

Answer 2

There is a Ranorex API for this. Just use this line of code.

NameOfYourRecording.Run();

Answer 3

I haven't tried yet, but you can execute a testcase through command line: run outside ranorex IDE

So if you execute something similar in your C#, I guess it should do the trick. It's not really executing an rxrec file from your code, but result should be equivalent.

Answer 4

I assume that you want to execute the Ranorex recording from a different C# project. You can compile your Ranorex project as ".dll" and then add reference to this dll in your other project. After this you should be able to run any recording with {RecordingName}.Start().
