Cannot find by automationID after update

[David]

Hi,

After updating to the newest version of Telerik Testing Framework new automation IDs are not recognised. The old ones (created before the update) work, but the new ones that I have added are not recognised and when the tests are run and I recieve an "element not found" error.

I think I am adding in the ID correctly (this is how I always used to add them in before). Please see the example below:

What is written in the Xaml:

<ListBox AutomationProperties.AutomationId="Menu_Model_Type_ListBox"
                                         Height="Auto"
                                         MaxWidth="250"
                                         ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
                                         ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
                                         HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
                                         ItemsSource="{Binding ModelTypes}">
                                    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>.....

 

What is written in the Test:

ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.Xaml.Wpf.ListBox modelTypeListBox =
               app.MainWindow.Find.ByAutomationId<ArtOfTest.WebAii.Controls.Xaml.Wpf.ListBox>("Menu_Model_Type_ListBox");

 

Any idea what could be causing this error? These elements are definitely there (and of the correct type etc.).

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,

David
