Single readyAPI instance with multiple licences

I have two different customers I work for and both have readyAPI PRO licence.

So, my problem now is, how could I install both licences and run them separately?

I mean, I want to use the licence of customer1 when testing for them and licence for customer2 when testing for them...

Is that possible somehow?

Thanks,

Joaquin.

    So, there is no watermark anywhere that would say, I executed the tests with one licence or another?

    - There is no watermark.

    - Yes, you can do this.

    Very peculiar case.

    You work for both the customers at the same time and on single computer?

      Yes nmrao, I work everyday for both customers in same computer.

      Was just wondering if I could switch from one licence to another.

      Hi Joaquin,

       

      You cannot use several licenses at the same time on one machine. 

       

      Are you performing testing under different users on the machine?

       

      Also, what is the reason of using different licenses? SoapUI licenses don't differ, so there is no sense to use different licenses.

        I just feel like I'm going into some kind of "fraud" If I use a licence that was paid for another customer. That's the case I want to avoid.

        Could I install readyAPI with a different user in same mahcine and link a different licence to that instance of readyAPI?

        Cheers,

        Joaquin.
