Yes.
* AscentialTest can recognize a text painted on top of the
application - a windows 10 banner with a system message for instance.
In this case, AT will identify this text as an object and take the
proper actions.
* It also works if the text objects are not present at design time.
* This also works in the case of a webpage with a long table, not
entirely visible at first:
AscentialTest can scroll down automatically, to find the text that
will be recognized as an object.
This text can be used wit...
AscentialTest can recognize texts, but it does not use OCR.
It uses a proprietary technology offering more possibilities and
benefits for testers.

Yes.
* You can capture and compare images
* AscentialTest supports pixel and color tolerance, for instance when
you run tests on various machines, with different display settings.
* If you test with various browsers rendering images differently,
snapshots can be made from each browsers.
You can then manage a separate list of object per browser
(objects are stored in a dedicated file that you can interchange if
needed and use with the same project).

for instance toolbar button, and make it object.
When running test, AscentialTest will look for this object.

It is understandable that someone new to test automation would wonder
whether the benefits of defining application objects are worth the
effort.
After all, isn't it more expedient to use a recorder that references
objects directly?
It is a question that occasionally surfaces during a comparison of
automated testing tools.
Yet the real merits of an object-based solution are difficult to
foresee during a short evaluation period.
Those benefits really appear when the first maintenance cycle occurs,
and ...

In general, the user should always take a snapshot and use that
snapshot to define App Objects.
But there are times when expert users might want to define an object
dynamically using a selector.
Here are a couple of examples:
_MyWebPage._WebTextField[1].SetValue("hello")
_MyWebPage._WebTextField[fist].SetValue("hello")
_MyWebPage._WebTextField[last].SetValue("hello")
You can refer to object dynamically but we only recomend to do that if
there is no way to define them first using a snapshot. The sna...
Sometimes Windows security doesn't allow UA server to update the
registry.
If this is your case, please follow the below procedure to update it
manually:
UA Server writes to the registry on your machine. It updates
HKLMMozillaNativeMessagingHostsua_firefoxhost:
Please make sure that the value is set to the user folder of the user
that you are logged into.
UA Server also copies the file to that location:
Please confirm that the file has been written to the location of the

If want to recognize the PbBitmap as an object, you can manually
define the object. You have to manually select the class AppObject and
then specify PbBitmap in the path statement along with some
distinguishing attribute, then AscentialTest will recognize the
object.
In case you want to confirm the actual image, you we have two ways of
doing that:using RenderImage or Image Compare/Capture.
Please open your UA Server application profile and locate the Internet
Explorer Helper
Check the Enable checkbox. Then close and reopen your target
application.
Then when you take a snapshot, AscentialTest will recognize the web
elements.
How to recognize Windows system pop-up & notifications?
Windows may display system messages on top of your application.
In such cases, you may need to intercept these message, and trigger
some specific actions.
This article explains how to detect and handle these windows message.
AscentialTest offers a special feature called a 'Handler'.
A handler creates a separate thread to poll for asynchronous popups.
When AscentialTest detects the popup, it calls the 'handler' which can
take what ever test ...
DEFINING POWERBUILDER TOOLBAR OBJECTS
Most PowerBuilder applications contain at least one toolbar.
AscentialTest recognizes the individual tools in the toolbar, using
the 'RenderImage' feature, please see attached document to define PB
toolbar objects.
