  • Hi Srini,

    In my case, I want to modify the XPath mostly because of frequetly changes in ID or Name.
    How could I use the regular expression or other mechanisms to handle such issues?

    Thanks

      Hi Yugandhara,

      yes, there is something called Oracle Test Manager, where you can configure multiple nodes and trigger parallel executions

      Thank you,

      I think, it creates in a hierarchy by default when you are using Object Library to record a script or spy and add objects to Object Library.. Are you experiencing something different? if so could you please share a link where we can see the image of the Object Library expanded and give some explanation as what you are looking for
