Smart Identification

[MTek1240]

Hi All,

I can't find an answer anywhere. So here is my question:

We need to use a different “Object Trees” for one (the same) Object

Example:

We have one object – WebEdit(“username”)

There are different "Object Trees" involved (depending on the version of the application)

Here they are:

Browser("...").Page("...").WebEdit("username")

and

Browser("...").Page("...").WebTable(“Login”).WebEdit("username")

Sometimes WebTable is included in the tree...

So here are the questions:

How to IGNORE that?

If the answer is in the Tools --> Smart Identification --> Congure... Then: What kind of propierties is an "Object Tree"? And how to set it?

Thank you very much!

First off - I'm having to guess that you're using QTP.

Second I don't know if you mean the version of QTP or your own application when you say the object path varies with the version.

So, without further information I'll give you the best generic advice I can. Have you tried checking if the object (specifying its full path) exists? This will allow you to decide which one to use. Replace the object path with a variable, which, depending on the results of the object exists check, will be set to the relevant path.

Essentially -

1. Check if WebEdit exists
If it does then set ObjPath = WebEdit
else set ObjPath = WebTable.WebEdit
2. Replace instances of wither path in your code with the variable ObjPath.

Or - check your application version at the start, and adjust accordingly.

Cheers,
Dave
