            <description>Do you use any continuous integration server? If you do you can configure it to run RIATest project every night using command line. 

RIATest will return exit code indication overall PASS/FAIL result and you can use rtxml2html utility to get HTML execution results.

For command line usage please see http://www.riatest.com/onlinedocs/v4/RIATest/CommandLine.html</description>

            <description>There are no known issues with non-ASCII characters in RIATest. It should work correct with all Unicode characters.

If you can send us a sample script and application that demonstrates the problem we will be glad to look into it.</description>

            <description>It is not possible for a script to be PASSED if there is a failed verifyEqual in it. I am not sure I understand your use case but you can probably just trace a message when the values are not equal, e.g.:
[code]
if (value1!=value2) trace(&quot;Values are not equal&quot;);
[/code]</description>

I just have on concern, look at in the document of RIATest, the select() function is introduced as select(automationName) with only one argument: automationName. So can we use more properties here to uniquely identify A and B? I have not tried this, so I am not sure.
 
You can use any public property (or set of properties) of the item to identify it. See section &quot;Related Objects&quot; here: http://www.riatest.com/onlinedocs/v4/RIATest/Locators.html</description>

I made sure to install what I needed from Microsoft like you said as well and it still fails. It is worth noting that other automation UI actions do work on this machine so I am not sure why this one fails?  Any ideas or suggestions? I am running this on Firefox 10.0.2.</description>

            <description>This is because python is not writing to standard output when executed in interactive mode (without command line options). 

It is easy to see that by executing  python.exe &gt; somefile.txt  from your Windows command prompt and noticing that the output still goes to screen rather than to somefile.txt as it would if python.exe was correctly writing to standard output.

So the incorrect behavior comes from python and there is probably nothing that can be done in RIATest about this issue.

As a workaround if all you want is to execute a python script just pass the name of the script file on the command line, e.g.:
 python.exe myscript.py 

When executed this way the output correctly goes to standard output and can be read from RIATest.</description>

            <description>If the issue is caused by slight difference in rendering of the image on different operating systems or browsers you can increase the tolerance for image search engine in RIATest. For example:
[code]setImageSearchOpt(SO_TOLERANCE,20);
[/code]
The tolerance specifies allowed difference between pixel RGB values. The value for tolerance should be an integer from 0 to 255. The tolerance of 0 requires exact matching of RGB values. The tolerance of 255 will match any two images The default value is 10. 

Try to specify the smallest possible value that still allows you to match the image on different machines.</description>

 I'm very excited to hear you'll be supporting HTML 5 in RIATest. How will it compare to using Selenium? 
We aim to add HTML support in a way that will be similar to current Flex support so that RIATest users feel at home. For example selecting an item from a combobox or a list will look like this:
[code]HtmlSelect(&quot;#list&quot;)=&gt;change(&quot;Item A&quot;);[/code]
Note how similar it is to Flex equivalent from Components sample:
[code]FlexList(&quot;hList1&quot;)=&gt;select(&quot;Item 1&quot;);[/code]


Unlike selenium which has been created when HTML was mostly static RIATest will also work much better with dynamic content and with widgets that are generated by HTML/Javascript frameworks such as ExtJS. 

For example selenium may record the following xpath locator for a dynamically created ExtJS button:
[code]//button[@id='ext-gen1278'][/code]
The above is very fragile since the id is likely to change from run to run.

RIATest on the contrary understands that it is an ExtJS button and knows not to use the dynamic id and use the caption instead:
[code]
ExtButton(&quot;Save&quot;)=&gt;click();
[/code]


BTW, all RIATest users are welcome to contact us if they would like to see a preview version of HTML automation support in RIATest.</description>

            <description>Is it s a standard Flex TabNavigator? AFAIK standard TabNavigator does not have a UI part that can be used to close it. 

If it is a custom tab navigator that has a close button you need to instrument the &quot;close&quot; event, see http://www.riatest.com/onlinedocs/v4/RIATest/CustomComponents.html</description>

Now I can copy/paste on selected cells by send Ctrl_V, but I am encountering with another issue. I want to test another action by right click on selected cell and chose &quot;Paste&quot; menu item, 

RIATest has  menuSelect()  and  menuItemSelect()  methods to support user simulate right click and select items. But I couldn't use these methods to select &quot;Paste&quot; item on the cell of adavanced data grid.

Could you please tell me how to determine menu &quot;Paste&quot; to paste value on the cell?

            <description>You can unselect &quot;Launch application before running&quot; to avoid having 2 browsers.

Alternatively you can enable &quot;Always accept connections&quot; project option. In this case you will not need to click &quot;Launch&quot; buttin in RIATest. It will always be ready to accept connection. So you will just need to run your application from Flash Builder and it will connect to RIATest.</description>

[code]var td = FlexColumnChart(&quot;columnchart1&quot;)=&gt;getTabularData();
var hasData = td.length&gt;0;

Another possibility is to access dataProvder directly, e.g.:

var hasData = dp.length&gt;0;
