It really depends on the application and how it was developed, there isn't one hard and fast rule. We ended up using mContentDescription when automating a React Native app for example as that's where our developers put our automation tags.

Thanks. I'm still learing about Android. I believe our dev will be using Kotlin. Tags for that?

Kontlin is just a programming language, not a UI tool kit nor do I know what kind of properties will be set, so again it completely depends on what the developers use when building UI components.
Without seeing your application I have no idea what properties would give you unique values, or what combination. There is nothing that says this platform + this language means use this property all the time.

Thanks. I just wasn't aware if there was a standard or not. When we started into iOS, different developers with different backgrounds all said that "accessibilityLabel" was the commonly used attribute for iOS. I just thought that perhaps there would be an equivalient in Android.
