NullPointerException from ranorex plugin

[christop...@googlemail.com]

Hi,

I am trying to call ranorex for execution of GUI tests.

To integrate Ranorex I followed this instructions:

https://www.ranorex.com/blog/integrating-ranorex-automation-in-jenkins-continuous-integration-process/

The things I am doing:

- build my own application with my own build environment -> succeeded

- build the ranorex test suite with the msbuild plugin -> succeded

- call the test suite by using the ranorex plugin from a pipeline -> NullPointerException

Here's a part of my part script:

ranorex rxReportDirectory: "./test/Ranorex", rxJUnitReport: true, cmdLineArgs:"ts:./MyTest/MyTestConfiguration.rxtst"

The resulting stacktrace:

java.lang.NullPointerException at com.ranorex.jenkinsranorexplugin.util.StringUtil.splitPath(StringUtil.java:41) at com.ranorex.jenkinsranorexplugin.util.FileUtil.getRanorexWorkingDirectory(FileUtil.java:46) at com.ranorex.jenkinsranorexplugin.RanorexRunnerBuilder.perform(RanorexRunnerBuilder.java:336) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.CoreStep$Execution.run(CoreStep.java:80) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.CoreStep$Execution.run(CoreStep.java:67) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.SynchronousNonBlockingStepExecution.lambda$start$0(SynchronousNonBlockingStepExecution.java:47) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

Anything I made wrong? An issue in the plugin?

Best regards,

Christoph
