  • Web: The objects which are solely created for web applications. They are present in web context of the hybrid applications and web applications.
  • Mobile: The objects which are solely created for mobile applications. They are present in native and native context of the hybrid applications.

Adding a Hybrid Application Object

A hybrid application (hybrid app) is one that combines elements of both native and Web applications. Hybrid applications run inside a native container and leverage the device's browser engine (but not the browser) to render the web elements like HTML and so forth. Qualitia allows you to add objects from the hybrid application into the object repository for mobile application testing.

Qualitia supports Hybrid application with debug enabled/Developer mode build only.
