You can configure
Silk Test Workbench to use the locator name or the alias from the object map during recording.
To use the alias from the object map during recording:
Note: In addition to the XPath attributes,
Silk Test Workbench uses additional attributes of the element when merging object maps during locator recording. However, attributes that might lead to ambiguous usage of object map IDs in a recorded script are not used to map locators to existing object map entries.
Note: When you enable the
Record object maps setting, object map item names display in place of locators throughout
Silk Test Workbench. For instance, if you view the
Application Configurations category in the
Properties pane, you will notice that the
Locator box shows the object map item name rather than the locator name.
