Hi,

 

As per my understanding, your query is that you have a div id which will be changing dynamically after every execution and due to this your test is failing.

 

If this is the case, please try the below steps:

 

1. Add a snapshot command before describe command

2. From "structure view" search for the DIV id and store the id value in a variable by adding an analysis rule (right clicking on DIV id->Quick analysis rule-> as shown in below screenshot)

3. Use that stored variable in describe command at id as shown in the attached testcase and it will pick that dynamic id from the web page automatically.

 

Hope it helps you!

 

Please let me know if i missed anything here.

Hi Neha,

 

That might be substitution issue. Please make sure that you have enabled "F" at the Target field in step properties of describe action.

 

 Thanks!

Hi,

 

Also make sure that you are using back slashes before the square brackets '[' and ']' in the command.

 

://DIV\[@id='$var1'\]/DIV;

 

Hope it helps you.

 

Thanks!
