Hi Thomas,

 


The Citrix Receiver screen is a usual VM screen. It's just a picture on the PC that connects to the VM. No onscreen objects will exist on the PC side. So, if you run TestComplete on the PC, it will not recognize any onscreen elements on the VM screen.


 


If you manage to install TestComplete on the same machine where the tested application is launched, TestComplete will recognize all onscreen objects.
