my country (except some universities and a handful of uber-geeks) didn't even have internet in the mid-90s ;)
Iirc my parents got our first dial-up in 1997 or so with the awesome speed of 56k at horrendous costs per minute and of course the modem got fucked up if someone called in so you had to reset the connection. I do no miss those times.

I don't think browser sniffing was invented by 1990; since the number of browsers available at the time was less than 1.
ah, you got me, english is not my native language and I wanted to say "the late 90s" :P -
RE: What's the bigger WTF - the student or the college who rewards mediocrity with a degree?
maybe you should take a huuuuuge step back from the code and just draw somewhere what you want to do. Because usually representing some abstract ifs and so on as a small flowchart does wonders to noobs getting it.

You are aware that the Android SDK comes with an emulator which would allow you to do this...?
yes, i am aware, but that does not change the fact that you somehow have to get ranorex running on / working with that thing.
PS: personally I am all for using selenium because that acutally works, but overthrowing a decision is not so easy ;) -
Questionable advice
Soooo, my company bought some Ranorex license, and we would like to use it for testing our mobile website. As we all know, mobile rendering engines have their kinks (also esp. if it comes to performance), which means we would like to get device automation on both iOS and Android. Turns out they don't support Android browser automation. And this is (part of) the answer we got from them when asking whats the status ... I think someone didnt quite get the problem.
If you want to test a website you can for example use the User Agent Switcher in Firefox instead of testing it on a real device.
Uh, jeah, what are we, like 1990 that we do browser sniffing? We want to test if the rendering engine can cope, not if a (non-existent) browser-sniffing 'if' works (also thats what unit-tests are for). -
