Identify controls in Tosca XScan

In Tosca XScan, you can identify controls in your test application by using multiple identification methods. The identification of controls by their properties is the default identification method in Tosca XScan. However, if your controls cannot be identified uniquely by their controls, there are additional ways to identify controls.

You can identify controls in the following ways:

• Identify by property, where you identify a control by its technical properties in the code, such as Title or InnerText.

• Identify via anchors, where you identify a control by its location relative to other controls, which are the anchors.

• Identify by index, where you identify a control by its position in the index of a page.

• Identify via images, where you identify a control by a screenshot of the control.
