Creating Objects

The first step in the automation of manual test cases is creation of objects. 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 can obtain the information about object properties from a test automation tool like HP UFT.
Qualitia users can create two types of objects from the New Object screen; Web and Mobile Native.

1. Click Develop > Objects > New.

The New Object screen is displayed. Click Browse to enter parent object, object name, description, and to select class.

To create an object from Mobile Native application:

The New Object screen is displayed. Click Browse to enter parent object, object name, description, and to select class.

1. Select Object Type as Mobile Native.
2. Select Parent Object under which you want to create these new objects.
