Known Side Effects
Open defectsReview the following list of open defects for Rational Functional Tester on the IBM Support Portal. Review technote 1461170: Open APARs for Rational products available on the Web for information on how to configure your MyNotifications subscription account and subscribe to the APARs you are interested in following. Known LimitationsSupport for Smart Card authenticationStarting with v9.1.0.1, support is provided for Smart Card authentication in the Rational Quality Manager adapter for Rational Functional Tester and the Rational Functional Tester Keyword view. This support is currently limited to Windows computers. In addition, while using IBM java to run the RFT-RQM adapter and keyword view for Smart Card authentication, please make changes to the java.security file in the IBM jre at jdk\jre\lib\security\java.security. For additional instructions, see http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21633703. Adobe Flex supportTesting Flex applications is supported only on 32-bit browsers. Testing Flex applications is not supported on Mozilla Firefox 17.0 and above or on Google Chrome . While taking a data verification point on multiple selected elements of a Flex list control, all the selected values are not picked up. Insert Test Object does not work for Flex and SparkFormControl. It is not possible to play back actions that are recorded on the vertical scroll bar of a SparkList. Microsoft Silverlight support:Rational FunctionalTester supports recording Silverlight applications only on 32 bit Internet Explorer. Microsoft .NET 4.5 supportRecording actions on the drop-down list of a RibbonFilterMenu is not supported. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate supportThis limitation only applies to 64-bit version of Windows. If you face any errors related to the loading of the package while creating a project in Rational Functional Tester, Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate Integration, use the following workarounds: Download and install any missing dependencies (for example, msvcp80.dll and msvcr80.dll). Then, create a project. For details, see the technote: Rational Functional Tester integration with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 does not work as expected. PDF 9.0, 10.0 and 11.0 file testing supportWhen you record on the Reader toolbar buttons in Adobe Reader 10.0 and 11.0, the action is recorded as click(atPoint(x,y)). When you record on a PDF file that is opened in a Mozilla Firefox browser, you must first record actions in the browser and then begin the recording on the PDF file. Playback fails when only the find() API is used to locate objects. As a workaround, click the captured object first and then play back. In Rational Functional Tester Microsoft Studio Integration, the PDF crashes during the playback, following a few clicks. Other limitations and workaroundsTo enable Google Chrome for testing, the extension must be installed from the Chrome Web Store. For more information, see technote 1699063. An Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE) must be installed and enabled for testing Google Chrome with Rational Functional Tester. For more information, see technote 1973262. For improving the performance of Rational Functional Tester with the Mozilla Firefox browser, see technote 1995375. Clearcase integration is only supported with a 32-bit installation of Rational Functional Tester. For testing 32 bit applications on Linux, RFT must be installed with 32-bit architecture. For testing 64 bit applications on Linux, RFT must be installed with 64-bit architecture. |
