You can select an object
in the test object map or the Script Explorer and have Functional
Tester highlight the object in the application-under-test.
Procedure
- Start the application. Verify that the page that contains
the object is visible.
- To highlight the object:
- In the test object map, select the object to locate and either
click the Highlight: Test Object button
in the test object
map toolbar or click Test Object > Highlight in
the test object map menu.
- In the Script Explorer, right-click the object to locate and click
Highlight.
Functional Tester highlights in the application the object
you selected. If Functional Tester finds more than one instance of
the test object, you can display neither or the top two candidates.
If
Functional Tester cannot find the object, it displays an error message.
Some possible reasons for the error:
- The application is not running or enabled.
- The environment is not enabled.
- The test object is not visible.
- The recognition properties for the test object no longer reflect
the test object in the application.
To specify various aspects of the highlight window (color,
width, flash, and display time), use the Set Highlight Window
Preferences dialog box or the Highlight page of the
Preferences dialog box.
