Element Identification
tip
UI Coverage is a paid add-on. Schedule a demo today and see how easy it is to enhance your testing while speeding up your development process.
Elements are uniquely identified across views and snapshots by their HTML attributes, location, and other signals in the DOM.
It is important for elements to have unique and stable identifiers so that UI Coverage can track and de-duplicate them throughout the many different snapshots captured in your tests.
UI Coverage considers the following attributes to have special significance for the purposes of identification and grouping:
data-cydata-testdata-testiddata-test-iddata-qarow-ididname
Element identification can be configured via attributefilters.md and significantattributes.md configuration.
