Adding Test Objects to the Local Object Repository From the Active Screen

We can select a test object of the current action from the Active Screen to add it to the object repository. To add the test object to the repository through the Active Screen, the Active Screen must contain information for the object you want to add.

You can control how much information is captured in the Active Screen in the Active Screen node of the option dialog box.

Select Object Types Dialog Box

The Select object type dialog box allows you to specify a custom object filter for adding test objects to the object repository while using the Add objects, Navigate or the Learn option.

When you define an object filter, it is automatically saved for future add object operations performed from either the Add Objects and Navigate and Learn option. You can open the select Object Types dialog box by clicking the select button in the Define object Filter dialog box.
