Common Properties (Web Automation)

The Web Automation Action Steps share the Common Properties.

Additionally, they have the following Common Properties:

  • Element XPath XPath is short for XML Path Language. This is a special language used to uniquely identify elements within an XML document. Since HTML is based on XML, you can use the XPath to identify any object on a webpage. You can use the Browser Wizard (see above) to generate XPaths or you can also enter them manually.

  • Window Title Title of the website where the referenced element is located. This will be set when using the Browser Wizard.

  • Use Window Title Determines whether or not the website title should be used to identify the correct browser tab

  • Frame Indexes/ Frame Hierarchy A series of indexes needed to identify elements that lie within frames. Each frame is referenced by its index, with individual frames separated by slashes. For example, a Frame Index of /2/1 means that the element lies within the first sub-frame of the second frame of the main page. This will be set when using the Browser Wizard.
