Project: Screen Element Identification

This scenario demonstrates how to ensure robust identification of screen elements by using selectors.

Scenario Overview

This scenario demonstrates how Automation Studio automatically identifies captured screen elements on a web page using two different methods:

• ID

• XPath

The scenario demonstrates the disadvantage of using the XPath method and shows how to use a third method, the Selector, to improve the identification of screen elements.
