    Because Flash is horrible closed eco-system.

     

    As a general rule, automation tools need to be using a debug version of it to do anything much beyond co-ordinate based clicking.

     

    It's explained in the SmartBear docs: https://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/69152/

     

    (And I'm not sure .... but I have a feeling the debug version/engine isn't free?)
