Unable to recognize objects on Chrome browser via UFT 14.02

  • I am using Chrome 56.0.2924.87 and UFT 14.02

  • I have installed HPE Functional Testing Agent along with agent crx file item.

  • The Chrome browser is zoomed to 100%.

Using Object Spy, I am unable to recognize any object in the entire page. Every time, I try to hover over or click, it shows me as:

WinObject: Chrome Legacy Window

Also, If I try to click on record by going to "Record & Run settings → Open the following when recording or running".

I am getting the following error, though:

Unable to Launch browser. The specified browser is not installed

I have followed the following steps to solve my problem:

  1. Set the system display settings to "100%" and resolution "2560 X 1440". Once this done, log out and log in back for the changes to take effect
  2. Zoom the Chrome browser to "100%".
  3. Drag and drop Agent.crx from the Installation/Chrome folder to browser to install the Extension.
  4. Launch UFT and then launch Chrome browser. Use Object Spy, you can now see that objects are being identified.
