ALM v17

UFT 24

I have several tests that run on normal and fast mode without any issue directly through UFT.

When these same tests are called from ALM, they fail.

I am out of ideas on what to fix when I cannot get it to fail when using UFT direct. And, as you know, I am not able to debug or intervene when it is launched through ALM.

I am confused to why this should happen at all as I believe, all ALM does is launch UFT and UFT runs the actions as per setup.

So why is it failing??

I have found in many places, that putting in waits to slow it down will allow it to work - but - I would rather not put in hard coded waits for something that works correctly on fast mode through UFT direct.

One issue is the AI that I have.

Last SAP upgrade made one of the object change whereby the only way I can capture it now, its with AI

The following code sees that the object exists and then captures the message text

AIUtil.SetContext Window("regexpwndtitle:=Asset Explorer", "regexpwndclass:=SAP_FRONTEND_SESSION", "is owned window:=False", "is child window:=False") 

If AIUtil.FindTextBlock("No postings for selected fiscal year").Exist(2) Then
   Msg = AIUtil.FindTextBlock("No postings for selected fiscal year").GetText

When I run this through ALM, the object does not exist, so no message text is captured - test fails.

Another example - the following does not save the selections and SAP throws error to select the Fix

again - this works on fast mode of UFT direct - only fails when launched through ALM

'When "FIX DESCRIPTION NOT FOUND - L2 TO ASSIGN" has been applied, the Supervisor must fill in this Fix section
If Browser("Supervisor").Page("Supervisor").Frame("Supervisor").WebElement("Fix Error Warning").Exist(1) Then
    If DataTable("Task", dtGlobalSheet) = "FIX DESCRIPTION NOT FOUND - L2 TO ASSIGN"  Then
