Citrix Automation, Image and Text Automation 4.1

In this video, you will learn how to automate virtualized applications and how to manually add actions to the recorded workflow, using the OCR engine to scan the screen of the virtual machine for text.

Important Actions Mentioned in this video:
·        ClickImage – action you can use to click on mostly anything: buttons, menus, text, or somewhere relative to such an element. As long as the image you choose is unique.    
·        ClickText – use this method for editable field, but uses OCR to scan the screen of the virtual machine for text.
·        Select&Copy is the easiest output method being used in Citrix automation, but works only for selectable text, like these textboxes.
·        ScrapeRelative - allows you to scrape just a portion of an image, relative to an anchor.

Key Take away when dealing with virtual machines:
The trick for faster automation in virtual machines is simply to avoid using mouse interactions, and replace them with keyboard actions such as navigating with the Tab key, and using keyboard shortcuts to activate different functions of the application.

·        Adding Tab and other navigation keys using the type tool.
·        Combine multiple keyboard actions into a single one.
