Tracking UI-elements

The detection and identification of UI-elements within a desktop, web, or mobile application are fundamental for testing purposes. The underlying method is tracking UI-elements and equipping them with a unique identifier, i.e. a RanoreXPath. Although the tracking of UI-elements usually is performed automatically by Ranorex software, there might be good reasons for doing it manually. These manual tracking methods are introduced herein.
