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 LimitationsViewing help topics from the context sensitive help and the product WelcomeThis product includes context sensitive help and a product Welcome, which, in turn, include links to the information center help. These links only work while the correct version of the information center help is open. Microsoft Silverlight support:Rational Functional Tester 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. 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. When running mobile Web UI tests with Safari on iOS devices, tests containing JavaScript alerts fail to run. This is an Appium limitation. With parallel test execution in 9.2.1, mobile devices are sometimes listed twice in the Run Test wizard, once for running the test with Chrome, and once for using the generic browser that is included with Rational Functional Tester. Be sure to select only one or the other. Parallel execution on an individual mobile device is not supported. |
