How to determine control ID or Name

[bdelia]

Greetings,

We are using SmartGWT 2.4.

My QA team is trying to automate testing efforts and having a hard time with the default naming conventions of the controls once rendered to html. We have tried calling .setID() and .ensureDebugID() but I am not seeing the controls getting their IDs set as I would expect. I am sure that I am misunderstanding how to get this done so any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks

Have you had a look at the Selenium Extensions in the distribution and its usage? If not, please do as it will probably answer a lot of your questions.
