Overview
Ranorex Studio is an apt tool for automating tests for web, desktop, and mobile applications.
It is user-friendly enough for non-programmers to create tests without any hurdles.
Supporting a range of technologies (.Net, Java, Flex, HTML), it’s compatible with different browsers (IE, Chrome, Firefox) as well as mobile applications (Android, iOS).
The chief component of this tool is Ranorex Studio, providing an integrated environment which includes the Ranorex Recorder, object repository, Ranorex Spy, code editor, and debugger.
In this tutorial, we will delve into the crucial topics such as Ranorex License, Studio, Recorder, Spy, Repository, Creating the First Project, Creating a Recording Module, and Executing the Test.
Let’s now explore each of these topics in depth.
System Settings and Ranorex License
To start working with Ranorex, downloading and installation are required on your device. The official website offers a trial version of the tool.
You need a business email ID to register on the official website to access the trial version. Following registration, a link to download and install the trial version will be sent to your registered business email ID. If you do not have a business email ID, you can reach out to the sales team for help with downloading the trial version.

To unlock all features of Ranorex Studio beyond the 30-day trial period, a license purchase is needed. Ranorex offers two kinds of premium licenses:
- Node-locked
- Floating
Both licenses offer the same feature set, the only difference being that a floating license can be used by multiple users and in virtual environments (like virtual machines and terminal servers).
Additionally, a Runtime license is available as an addition to the Premium license. The Runtime license permits users to run tests on more than one machine simultaneously with the same license.
The system settings for Ranorex Studio are straightforward, with most of the required software components installed automatically with the Ranorex Studio package. The user-friendly installation wizard provides step-by-step instructions to guide you through the process.
Ranorex Studio supports nearly all Windows operating systems, inclusive of both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
Ranorex Studio
As you launch the tool, Ranorex Studio opens up automatically.
Ranorex Studio’s interface appears as follows:

The studio provides three views:
- Project View
- Module View
- File View
To explain:
Project view showcases all the files associated with the ongoing project.
Module view presents all the modules contained in the current project.
File view offers various actions on the file in use.
We will delve more into these views as we move forward.
Ranorex Recorder
Just like other test automation tools, Ranorex Studio facilitates users to record test steps in the form of actions performed on the application being tested, which can be replayed later. These recorded steps can also be edited and fine-tuned. Ranorex’s object repository manages the recorded steps.
