Default

UFT One 15.0.1 and earlier: Not selected.

UI Element

Description
Runtime object identification
Automatic scrolling

Select this option to enable automatic scrolling. When running a test, if an object is not displayed in the application but the web page or mobile app is scrollable, UFT One automatically scrolls further in search of the object.

UFT One scrolls similarly when running a checkpoint that requires that an object not be displayed in the application.

Default: Selected.

You can customize the direction and extent of the scrolling:

  • Scrolling direction The direction in which to scroll. Default: Down.
  • Max number of scrolls The maximum number of pages or screens to scroll. Default: 2.

Tip: To temporarily override these global settings in a test run, add AI run settings steps to your test. For details, see the AIRunSettings Object in the UFT One Object Model Reference for GUI Testing.
AI Transformation Assistant
Replace run results with AI step suggestions

Select this option to run your tests and receive a report suggesting AI object steps that you could use in your test. Replace existing steps with AI object steps to create a more resilient and platform-agnostic test.

When this option is selected, your test run results do not reflect the results of the test. Instead, the report suggests an AI object and operation for any step where a property-based test object can be replaced with an AI object.

Default: Not selected.

OCR settings
Select OCR settings

Specify which text recognition settings to use: 

  • UFT OCR settings. AI features use the OCR engine, languages, and settings defined in the Text Recognition pane. For details, see Text Recognition Pane (Options Dialog Box > GUI Testing Tab).
  • Default AI OCR. AI features use the languages you select below, and a different OCR engine than the one selected in the Text Recognition pane.
OCR languages

Relevant when the Use Default AI OCR option is selected. 

Move languages from the Available Languages list to the Selected Languages list, to specify the languages to use for AI-based text recognition. These languages are used when identifying text in the application, when using text to identify a specific object, and when retrieving text from the application.

Supported languages: English (default), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish.

Tip: To temporarily override these global settings in a test run, add AI run settings steps to your test. For details, see the AIRunSettings Object in the UFT One Object Model Reference for GUI Testing.
