The object properties configuration tool lists the default
objects and the customized objects that are used by Functional Tester.
If the required test object of the application-under-test is not listed
in the object properties configuration tool, you can add the test
object to the object library and customize its recognition properties
and weights. In the Add Object dialog box, you can also add the recognition
properties for the existing test objects that are listed in the object
properties configuration tool.
Procedure
- Click to open the Object Properties Configuration Tool window.
- Select the required Test Domain from
the list.
- Click Add Object to add a new test
object for the selected domain. You can add the test object
manually by specifying the test object name and having it inherit
the recognition properties from other test objects or by selecting
the test object using the Object Finder tool.
- To add a test object using the Object Finder tool:
- Click the Start Application icon
to open the test application.
- In the Start Application dialog box, select the application
from the Application Name list and click OK. The test application opens.
- Click the Object Finder icon
in the Add Object dialog box and drag it into the application over
the object you want to add to the object library. The
recognition properties and weights of the selected object are listed
in the Object Recognition Properties grid. By default, the object
properties that are recognized by the functional testing application
are checked.
- To add the required recognition properties for the object,
select the corresponding check box.
- To manually add a test object:
- Type the Class name of the object.
- Select the object name from the Inherit list
to use the object recognition properties and weights of an existing
object. The inherited object recognition properties
and weights are listed in the object recognition properties grid.
- Clear the check box that corresponds to a property row
if you do not want the recognition property for the new test object.
- Click Ok. If you
add a new test object or a recognition property to an existing test
object, an asterisk is displayed beside test object name in the list.
You can further customize the object recognition properties and weights
in the object properties configuration tool, if required.
