How to verify the content of new rows in telerik's grid

[Ignacio]

Hello,

I'm new in automation and I'm having troubles with something. I hope someone can help me out here.

I'm having troubles while trying to verify the content of a row after creating it. My issue is that after creating a new "thing" the grid generates a row with a dinamic ID and I can't verify if the "thing" was created or not because I don't know how to locate the row that was created.

Thanks in advance,
Ignacio

Hi Ignacio,

What type of Telerik Grid are you verifying, HTML or Silverlight? Are non-coded steps failing on playback against the Grid? If, it's possible that you need to change the Find Logic for the elements associated with the failing steps. Each element in the Test Studio Elements Repository has Find Logic associated with it. Depending on what this logic is based on - it may become invalid when you add new items into your grid. Checkout the following article:

Also please check out the following article which will give you a basic idea of how to access grid elements in code:
