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.

That is used a lot fo iOS though I don't really agree with that point. It's used for the accessibilty features of the OS and is very subject to change at anytime to become ADA compliant. If they are by chance using the standard Android UI toolkit, I believe they should be able to provide a View_ID for each control, but don't quoted me on that exactly, been a while since I've written anything for android.
