Which of the following scenarios is appropriate for the developer who wants to use UI Automation activities?

A developer is building an automation that must interact with a destination remote computer reached by jumping through multiple RDP connections, as described by the following scenario:

– The Robot is installed on Machine A, which connects through RDP to Machine B.

– From Machine B another RDP connection is opened to Machine C, where the automation must be performed.

Answer: B

Explanation:

To use UI Automation activities in a scenario where the destination remote computer is reached by jumping through multiple RDP connections, the following prerequisites are required:

Machine A – install the RDP extension. This extension enables the robot to generate native selectors over RDP connections and interact with the UI elements on the remote machines.

Machine B – install the RDP extension and the RemoteRuntime.msi. The RDP extension allows the robot to connect to Machine C from Machine B, while the RemoteRuntime component enables the communication between the robot and the UI elements on Machine B.

Machine C – install the RemoteRuntime.msi. This component enables the communication between the robot and the UI elements on Machine C, where the automation must be performed.
