Component IDs for Automation

[AnutharshaSelvarasa]

Hi,

We are using Smart GWT version 12 and we are trying to automate the client side and we are facing some issues when we try to capture the component using the Ids and Xpaths. Also after a release already captured components are getting failed due to the random components Ids. How can we overcome this challenge? What is the best way to handle this?

Hi,

Sorry for late reply. We were do testing using selenese and we could not accomplished. We have inserted static ids to our application(using $89 property). But smartgwt converting it to dynamic ids. We need a solution for this. It would be great if you can help with this.

Did you read the "Automated Testing" help topic as Blama suggested? You shouldn't need to use any obfuscated properties. How are you recording your tests?
