[WebUI] Modify Object Property

Description

Modify existing property or add a new property to test object. Use when test object has attributes changing in runtime.

This keyword does not modify the object saved in Object Repository. Instead, it creates another test object, modifies and returns this test object. Hence, users must use a variable to store the returned object.

Keyword name: modifyObjectProperty

Parameters

Parameter	Parameter Type	Required	Description
testObject	Test Object	Yes	Represents a web element.
propertyName	String	Yes	Name of the property (ex. Xpath, id, name) If the property already exists in the object, the keyword will modify its related artifacts; if not, the keyword will add a new property.
matchCondition	String	Yes	Condition to match property name with property value, for example, equals, not equals. In case the property already exists, input null to this argument to keep the old value of match condition.
modifyValue	String	Yes	Value of the property. In case the property already exists, input null to this argument to keep the old property value.
isActive	Boolean	Yes	True if the property is checked (used to find the test object); otherwise, false. In case the property already exists, input null to this argument to keep the old value.
flowControl	FailureHandling	Optional	Specify failure handling schema to determine whether the execution should be allowed to continue or stop.

Returns

Parameter Type	Description
TestObject	The newly created TestObject.
