Bringing AUT back into focus [message #1403143]

Hi there,

We have a situation where we test opening a windows folder from inside our AUT. The problem we are running into is that this new window can sometimes cover up the AUT. Then when the next test runs it fails because the AUT is not in focus. I know there are commands in the Application setting. The problem with those is that if the area in the AUT you are trying to click is covered (titlbar), you won't get the AUT in focus.

Has anyone else figured out a way to work around this? Or have a clever idea I can try?

This can be done by using event handlers and external key combinations. Just tab through your applications until the right one is selected. I'm quite sure this has been discussed here before, just search the forum. There might be some information on the Testing Portal.

Disclaimer: If you haven't guest, I'm not writing tests on a regular basis, so I'm just forwarding information I've heard from our test consultants. Wink

Hi,
You can use directly "Alt-Tab" of your operating system. It will bring you back to the previous active window.
Use

ub_app_pressAnyKeyCombination_ALT

with

BASE_KEY=TAB

I just tried on Windows to put twice this action, and I went from my AUT to Jubule, then back to Jubula.

To be sure it works, you should add a wait time after sending the key combination.
