How to make xpath calls directly from a Katalon script?

[Russ_Thomas]

Hey Jeremy

I’m not entirely sure what you’re asking. If you want to create TestObject “live” in memory (instead of building them and storing them in the Object Repo) you can use makeTO() (note: you can change to using xpath instead of css if you wish).

Creation of Test Object in Object Repository in Runtime

Hi Indurajan I use this: /** * Construct a Katalon-compatible TestObject in memory. * @param css (String) The CSS selector used to find the target element. * @return (TestObject) The constructed TestObject. */ static TestObject makeTO(String css) { TestObject to = new TestObject() to.addProperty("css", ConditionType.EQUALS, css) return to }

Also documented here:

If that’s not what you want to do, let me know.
