Can we execute UI Automation test cases in Background

[Prashant]

Hi,

Is it possible to execute Telerik UI Automation Test cases in Background or even if the test browser window is minimized ?
I am using
CloseButton.User.Click()



Thanks,

Hello Madhav,

This is possible if all test steps act directly upon the DOM. If you have any real mouse actions (as in your example), key presses, or dialog handling, it won't work. See here for more information.

Kind regards,

As I always say, there is plan B.  Create a virtual world with Telerik and run from there.  It's more common to do have virtual world, run your scripts and minimize.

My Two Cents,
John

Hi John,

Can you please provide us more information on Virtual World.

Hello Madhav,

I believe John simply means installing Test Studio on a Virtual Machine. You can then create a Remote Desktop Connection to it and keep the session active. See here for more information.

All the best,
