Object Spy Not Recognizing Objects in Browser Window
I'm trying to setup the foundations for a new test project and want to begin by mapping the objects. However, I'm finding that when I try to use Object Spy to identify objects in my application (or any application, for that matter) it doesn't recognize anything more specific than the entire browser window.
As I said, this is happening for any site that I open across any browser (tried FF, Chrome, and IE). For example, if I open a browser and navigate to google.com... when I use the Object Spy on that page I can't identify anything except the entire browser window or the page. Regardless of whether I'm pointing the Object Spy at the Google logo, the search text field, the Search button, etc... the Object Spy only highlights the entire window -- Sys.Browser("chrome").Window("Chrome_WidgetWin_1", "Google - Google Chrome", 4).Window("Chrome_RenderWidgetHostHWND", "Chrome Legacy Window", 1)
