Hi, I have been tasked with writing automated tests that need to use

Hi,

I have been tasked with writing automated tests that need to use (browse, enter texts, click buttons etc) objects on Appian pages. I’ve been looking at the DOM for a few of the early-release pages and have having difficulty identifying ways of performing object identification.

As an example, an Appian page I’m looking at has a number of inputs (text, dates, dropdows etc….). Picking two different textboxes at random I see:-

<input type="text" class="aui-TextInput" id="gwt-uid-245" aria-required="true" aria-invalid="false" style="text-align: left;">
and
<input type="text" class="aui-TextInput" id="gwt-uid-271" aria-required="true" aria-invalid="false" style="text-align: left;">

The wrapping/parent elements do not have anything that can be used and the id attributes change between page renderings. Is anyone else using Test Automation with Appian and if so, how are they doing robust object identification? Is there a way I can get the design...
