The first step in the automation of manual test cases is adding objects to the object repository. While creating an object, you need to identify the controls of the application under test for creating objects and gather information about object properties.

You add two types of objects; Web and Mobile.

Adding a Web

Object

In order to automate the web application testing, you need to add the web objects of the application under test. 

To add Web objects:

1. From the Expand Menu, click Develop.
2. Click the Objects tab.
3. Do one of the following:
   • To create a parent object, click Create Object.
   • To create a child object, from the left page, select the part object under which you want to add, click plus.  
4. Enter Object Name and Description.
5. Select Class from the drop-down list.
6. Select Locator Type and enter its associated Locator Value.
7. (Optional) Enter Time Out in seconds.

8. (Optional) Enter Polling Interval in milliseconds.

   Note
   If you specify Time Out and Polling Interval, Qualitia uses the Explicit Wait mode and override these values entered in the associated execution profile.
