The Tested Applications collection can include AIR applications. Parameters of AIR applications under test in the TestedApps editor are organized into two sections - Basic Parameters and Run-Mode Parameters.

Basic parameters include the following:

Parameter	Description
Name	The unique name of the tested application in the Tested Applications collection. This name is used to refer to the application in tests, for example, in the Run TestedApp keyword test operation.
Autorun application on recording	Select this option to have the application launched automatically when you start test recording.
Launch application from tests	Uncheck this option to prevent the application from being launched by the Run TestedApp keyword test operation and the `TestedApps.AppName.Run` scripting method. For example, you can define several instances of the tested application with different configurations and “disable” those not needed at the moment.
Use special runtime object	This option controls the scripting interface to the tested application. If it is enabled, you can get and set the application parameters directly via the `TestedApp.AppName` object. This object is a `AIRTestedApp` object. If it is disabled (not recommended except for legacy tests), `TestedApp.AppName` returns a generic `TestedApp` object that contains properties and methods common to all application types. To set AIR-specific parameters, use the `TestedApps.AppName.Params.AIRParams` property.

The following parameters are specific to AIR applications in the Tested Applications collection:

Parameter	Description
Run application under AIR debugger	Use this option if you are testing an unpackaged AIR application specified by the application descriptor file. AIR Debug Launcher - the path to the AIR Debug Launcher’s executable file (adl.exe). This utility is part of Adobe AIR SDK and typically resides in the <AIR_SDK>\bin folder. Application Descriptor File - the path to the AIR application’s descriptor file (*.xml) that specifies application metadata.
Specify AIR application executable	Use this option if you are testing an installed AIR application. In the edit box, specify the path to the application’s executable file (.exe).
Command-line parameters	The command-line arguments that will be used to launch the application.
Working folder	The working folder for the application run.

You can enter file and folder paths manually or click the button and browse for the needed files and folders.

The paths can include environment variables, such as %PROGRAMFILES%, as well as project and project suite variables in the format $(VarName). See Using Variables in Tested Application Paths.
