So I am doing much of my scripting manually as opposed to Record and Playback.  I am testing a website created with a third party app and the objects are not quite as straightforward as other sites I have tested.  I use Object Spy a lot and then go in an rename my objects and turn off Smart ID and this seems to work well with this site.

As I navigate through the objects in this web app, I am doing multiple runs to try my code. and if I see a new object I need to learn, I will use Object Spy.

My Browser always has the same name but I find that my Page (for example Browser("MyBrowser").Page("MyPage") ). NOTE MyBrowser and MyPage are not my real browser and page names.  

As I am going along, MyPage will have Frames such as Browser("MyBrowser").Page("MyPage").Frame("Frame") but next time I use Object Spy the next object will be in Browser("MyBrowser").Page("MyPage_1"), Browser("MyBrowser").Page("MyPage_2"), etc. and sometimes it will even show up as Browser("MyBrowser").Page("MyPage").Frame("Frame_1") or Browser("MyBrowser").Page("MyPage_3").Frame("Frame_1")

Is this a setting I have turned on?  Why is it doing this?  It doesn't seem to affect the run until I load and run another script and come back to this previous script and run it and the object is not found.

I am sure I have a checkbox in the settings causing this.  Can anyone tell me what it is?

Thank you,

Hi Zune

Try changing the Page/Frame Options appropriately from the below.

Page/Frame options is available at Tools --> Options --> GUI testing. Under GUI Testing, Web --> Page/Frame options.

Hope this helps
