Turbo Mode is a feature in Ranorex Studio that skips the recorded timing delays between actions during test execution. In other words, when Turbo Mode is enabled, the usual pause or wait time that was captured between recorded steps is omitted. This allows the test to run back-to-back without those artificial delays, effectively speeding up the playback.
Enable Turbo Mode
Turbo Mode is disabled by default. You can enable it in Ranorex Studio either for individual recordings or for an entire test run:
- In the Recorder Settings, you can enable this option by checking Enable turbo mode for replay and generated code. When this option is checked, any delays recorded between actions are not included as waits in the module’s generated code. This means the module is executed without those recorded pauses.
-
Recording Module: Ranorex provides a Turbo Mode button in the Recording module. This is a convenient way to quickly run an entire test suite faster without editing each recording.
When to Use Turbo Mode
Turbo Mode is useful for speeding up test execution. Some situations where using Turbo Mode can be beneficial include:
- Speeding Up Long Test Runs: If you have a lengthy regression test suite with many recorded user actions, Turbo Mode can cut out unnecessary idle time and significantly reduce the total execution time.
- Tests with Built-in Wait Conditions: If your test already uses robust synchronization, then the recorded delays are not truly needed. In such cases, Turbo Mode can safely accelerate the test because the workflow is governed by actual application-state checks rather than arbitrary pauses.
