Can we access search attributes of already searched element

[Prachi]

Hi,

Can we access search attributes like Automation Id, Name from a already searched element at runtime?

For Example - 
If I have a control with automationID and Name attributes associated with it.
return Get<ArtOfTest.WebAii.Silverlight.UI.Button>("AutomationId=SearchButton","Name=SButton","XamlTag=button");

Is there any way so that during run time i can print the AutomationId, Name, XamlTag of the control?

Thanks,
Prachi

Hello Prachi,

Yes, all of these are properties of the FrameworkElement class. See here for more information. You can easily access them during runtime by simply referencing the desired element in the Repository. 

Here's an example:
Pages.SilverlightControls.SilverlightApp.RadGridView1Radgridview.AutomationId;
Pages.SilverlightControls.SilverlightApp.RadGridView1Radgridview.XamlTag;
Pages.SilverlightControls.SilverlightApp.RadGridView1Radgridview.Name;


All the best,
