Message - Chromium Embedded Content Detected

Applies to TestExecute 15.40, last modified on March 25, 2022

You may get this message when you are exploring a CEF-based or Electron-based application with the TestLeft UI Spy. The test engine shows this message if it detects an embedded Chromium web browser in the application and cannot access the content the browser shows.

To get access to the embedded content in a CEF-based and Electron-based application, run your application by using the ApplicationManager.Run method provided by the TestLeft library.

For CEF-based applications: Make sure that one of the following conditions is met:

  • Your application executable imports the libcef.dll library.

  • Your application executable and the libcef.dll library reside in the same folder.

  • You run your application executable with the injectCefHook command-line argument (case-insensitive, any prefix).

For detailed information on testing CEF-based and Electron-based applications, see the following topics in the TestLeft online documentation:
