Get Java Object Value

Retrieve the value of an object in the active Java application and place it into a new or existing variable. This command can be especially useful for checking the value of checkboxes, radio buttons, drop-down lists, etc.

Support and Prerequisites: See Java Automation Commands Support and Prerequisites

1. Select the Java object whose value you would like to retrieve.

   After selecting the object, the following buttons become available (when relevant):

   • Click an object

   • Expand selection

   • Narrow selection

   • Highlight selected object

   • Use right-click for selection

   • Tree view

     

     Highlighting items with blue while hovering them is set to be off by default. To change that, change the key value <add key="FeatureFlag_JavaHighlight" value="false" /> to "true" in the appsettings.config file of the Studio.

2. Enter the name of the variable into which you want to save the result of the query (TRUE/FALSE).

3. Choose whether to retrieve the object value by text or by index.

4. Select the Java search method by platform (Default, Awt, Swing, or JavaFx).

5. Instruct the wizard how to handle any errors encountered. Read more about error handling.
