APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Recorded scripts in full HD resolution. Inserted 'Maximize
    browser window' navigation action at the start of the page.
    Still getting small browser window - definitely not 1920x1080
    according to the page image taken during the playback.
    
    The maximize functionality is not working when scripts are
    getting executed in headless mode, observed this behavior when
    Rational Functional Tester is launched with normal user
    (non-Administrator).

Problem conclusion

  • When you ran a Web UI test in the headless mode in Google
    Chrome, the browser was not maximized, and the screen resolution
    did not match the resolution that was used while recording the
    test.
    This problem can be fixed by specifying the screen resolution by
    using the Launch browser arguments option in the Run
    configuration dialog.

    arguments
