Keypresses and Bluestacks

[Korunks]

Hello all,

I recently purchased the pro version MMM to automate some testing with the blue stacks application. The issue I am running into is that the keystrokes do not seem to be registered by blue stacks when executed by the macro.  To be clear when I am recording the macro blue stacks responds as expected with the key strokes, but on immediate playback only the mouse movements occur.  IS there some setting I am missing, or is MMM not compatible with blue stacks?

Hi Korunks,



It's most likely because blue stacks is not allowing input from the outside of it's emulator environment. To be more clear, blue stacks is running a 'container like' emulation environment within the windows desktop. This container is isolated in a way whereby it is not allowing, by design, the operating system to parse input indirectly into the virtual container environment.



If you bought the pro version for this reason and this reason only, contact Steve, he'll most likely give you a refund.

Regards,
Manny.
