When you start Prior to automating your manual test cases, the first thing you will need to do is add objects to your object repository . This repository will to include:

1. Parent objects: These are objects whose class is a page.

2. Child objects: These are objects present under a page class and used in your test cases. A child object can also have its own set of child objects.

Viewing Test Cases Before Modifying Objects[SS3] 

Before you make changes to an object, it's a good idea to check which test cases will be affected. This can help you understand the impact of your changes. Here's how you can do it:

·       Click Develop from the left navigation pane.

·       Click Objects icon from the right side of the screen.

·       A slide-out panel will appear where the existing objects will be listed.

·       In the left pane, find the object you're planning to modify. This could be a parent or child object that's been used in some tasks.

·       Right-click on the object, then click on View Test Cases from the context menu.

This will show you a list of all the test cases where the object is used. If you select an object from the list view (right-pane) and choose to edit it, you'll also see a list of impacted tasks. You can then decide whether to proceed with the edits or take some other action based on the potential impact.

Editing an Image Object

Editing an image object is like editing a regular object, but there are a few additional fields:

1. Image Accuracy: This lets you specify the image pixel accuracy value, which ranges from 1 to 100. For example, if you set the image accuracy value to 10, then it will verify the image object by matching 10% of the image pixels. The default value is 70.

2. Time out: This lets you specify the maximum time, in seconds, that you want the system to spend searching for the object.

3. Polling Interval: This lets you specify the polling interval in milliseconds.

4. Class: This lets you select the desired class.

...

1. Once completed, click Save to add the object to repository; otherwise, click Discard.

2. Now, you have two options:

   1. To create a parent object, click Add Object at same level.

   2. To create a child object, find the parent object from the left pane under which you want to add the child. Then, click Add Contained Object button.

      1. Follow the same process for adding an Object.

      2. In case of Child Object, select the Parent from the dropdown.
