Dynamic Page localhost

[butoy07]

I'm automating the mobile application using Record and Play and I observe that I encountered an error every time I rerun the application.

I always got an error  The object "formMiddle_Name_" does not exist.

Upon investigation I observe that every time I run the application, the number in page local host was changing(Please see the red font of the object)

This is my actual Object:

Aliases.Device.Process_allianzpnblife_azjourney.RootLayout.WebView_orgapachecordovaengineSystem.Page_localhostcreateeditlead9bad9.formMiddle_Name_.formMiddle_Name_

Please help me to solve this problem. Thank you!

Wildcards will help you out

You can edit your test in the place where the number is changing so it will accept all numbers there instead of just the one you recorded.

Hello,

When I change page localhost to "*" I encountered an error again. Please see my screenshot.

Hello @butoy07 - 

You would have to add the wildcard in the NameMapping section instead of in the aliases.

Please take a look at this page for more information on working with NameMapping properties: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/object-identification/name-mapping/basi...

Thanks,
