Embedded web browser in WPF unable to object spy

Hi,

I am trying to object spy / map a web page embedded in a WPF app. Its class name is "System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser"

Any one know if this is possible or do we need to buy the web testing module for it to see it?

You need the Web testing module to test web pages displayed using WPF System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser.

  Yes i just installed a trial of TC12 that has the web module and the objects were found so it looks like we need WebTesting module

I don't think you need a web module to test since the WPF application falls under Desktop category.

System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser does not appear to be in the supported controls

  System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser is a browser window object that you can see it as BrowserWindow.

    BrowserWindow is a window of a real browser like Chrome or Firefox. In case of an embedded WebBrowser you'll just see the Page object inside the app.
