    Hi,
    I am doing research about how to test our silverlight app in a correct way, and one question what I would like know is how we should test composite control (for example MyInventoryView.xaml is a view wich  contain a list of itemView.xaml using a ListBox)
    something like:
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
                        <DataTemplate>
                            <xyz:ItemView  ...  />
                        </DataTemplate>
                    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>


    How I should get a list of these itemView objects?

    The easy way to get a control when we know the name and the type is 
    itemViewSilverlightApp.Find.ByName<DataGrid>("myName");

    But what is the way to get when we are talking about specific usercontrol? (shall we add a reference from the project wich has the specific usercontrol??)

    Best Regards,
    Rolando.

    Hi Rolando,
    I'm not sure I correctly understand you question?

    You want to get all the ListBoxItems from a ListBox control? Here's a code sample that does that for the ListBox found this demo page:
    http://demos.telerik.com/silverlight/#CoverFlow/Integration

    Manager.Settings.Web.EnableSilverlight = true;
        //Settings.Current.Web.EnableSilverlight = True
        // Launch a browser instance
        Manager.LaunchNewBrowser(BrowserType.InternetExplorer);
     
        // The active browser
        ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://demos.telerik.com/silverlight/#CoverFlow/Integration");
     
        SilverlightApp app = ActiveBrowser.SilverlightApps()[0];
     
        ListBox lb = app.Find.ByAutomationId<ListBox>("cityList");
     
        int counter=1;
     
        foreach (ListBoxItem lbi in lb.Find.AllByType<ListBoxItem>())
        {
            Log.WriteLine("ListBoxItem " + counter.ToString() +":"+ lbi.Text);
            counter++;
        }

    This code will write the text of each ListBoxItem to the test log.
