I appreciate all of the replies. As mentioned, ive had my skillset in UFT way back when it was Astra QuickTest. So migrating my skills to TC will be a process. Im not married to XPath. In fact, just started using it within the last couple of years. from my experience with it, it's one obj prop vs, at least two to sometimes 4 obj props to identify a single web element, e.g., an edit field. That said, my evaluation of this tool has been rewarding. Ive spent a couple of months getting it to integrate to VS and TFS -- and getting it to run tests via a build def. So havnt had the time to explore the scripting engine capabilities as much as I would have preferred to do. Sorry for the bold font,
