Screen Capture through Variable/Constant in Object Repo : Automation API

[dal]

Team,

As per the example below, is there a way to access the "AppFolderName" as a String Variable/Constant.
Or we need to explicitely use the AppFolder Name instead of having them in functions?

Code: Select all


Dim Repo As GlobalRepository = GlobalRepository.Instance
Const AppFolderName = "AppFolder1"

Repo.AppFolderName.Self.Focus() 'Pls suggest what might be the change I need to make here...
Report.Screenshot()

Hi,

Can you please describe this in more detail, because at the moment I don't know exactly what you are trying to do.

Thank in advance.

Let's say I have the following Application Folder in my Object Repository.
E.g.
AppFolder1 (for Login)
AppFolder2 (for Home Page)

I want to capture every Application Folder (i.e. Every Distinct Page in my application) through the following method:

repo.AppFolder1.Self.Focus()
Report.ScreenShot()

repo.AppFolder2.Self.Focus()
Report.ScreenShot()

Instead of having the AppFolder1/AppFolder2 ... can I pass through a variable which will intern capture a screen shot for me for the different application folder in my application.

Hi,

Sorry but it is not possible at the moment to make the repository variable. The only way you can check it would be to use reflection. Therefore take a look to following link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 80%29.aspx
