How too set options to specify how Robot responds to unexpected active windows?
- Open the GUI Playback Options dialog box.
- Click the Unexpected Active Window tab.
- To have Robot detect unexpected active windows and capture the screen image
for viewing in the Image Comparator, select Detect unexpected active
windows and Capture screen image.
- Specify how Robot should respond to an unexpected active window:
Send key - Robot sends the specified keystroke: ENTER, ESCAPE, or any
alphabetic key (A through Z).
Select pushbutton with focus - Robot clicks the push button with focus.
Send WM_CLOSE to window - Robot sends a Windows WM_CLOSE message.
This is equivalent to clicking the Windows Close button.
- Specify what Robot shoul d do if i t cannot remove an unexpected acti ve window:
-
Continue running script - Robot continues script playback with the next
command in the script after the one being processed when the unexpected active
window appeared. Playback continues even if the unexpected active window
cannot be removed. This may result in repeated script command failures.
-
Skip current script - Robot halts playback of the current script. If the script that
detected the unexpected active window was called from within another script,
playback resumes with the script command following the CallScript
command.
-
Abort playback - Robot halts playback completely. If the script that detected the
unexpected active window was called from within another script, the calling
script also stops running.
- Click OK or change other options.
Why setting the Diagnostic Tools Options?
You can use the Rational diagnostic tools - Rational Purify, Quantify, and
PureCoverage - to collect diagnostic information about an application during
playback of a Robot script.
After playback, Robot can integrate the diagnostic tool’s results into the Robot log,
so that you can view all of the playback results in one place. You can choose to show
any combination of errors, warnings, and informational messages. You can then
double-click a result in the log to open the script in Robot and the appropriate file in
the diagnostic tool.
How to set options to specify the diagnostic tool to be used during playback?
1. Open the GUI Playback Options dialog box.
2. Click the Diagnostic Tools tab. Then do the following:
a. Click the diagnostic tool
under which the application
should run. The options are
enabled if you have the tools
installed.
b. Optionally, change this
value. This multiplies wait
state and delay values.
c. Select the type of
information to show in the
log.
3. If you selected any of the log check boxes in step 2c, click the Log tab and select
both Log management check boxes.
4. Click OK or change other options.
