Hi All, we are facing issue with UI object maintenance. we have so much duplicated object as we started with record and playback approach. Now we want to rework on our object repository and remove duplicate objects. Is there any way to directly change the reference from one test object with another …

@sumiranraut96 I have already answered to your question at [image] WebUI Test Object - Best Practice Katalon Studio I wrote: I would give you a starter for developping tools for you. See the following GitHub project. My com.kazurayam.ks.ObjectRepositoryRetriever cla…

yeah this question was more specific about changing the reference of test objects’ to test cases. anyway Thanks @kazurayam . one qq was reading your code that you posted in my previous post. so in that are we just printing the content of .rs files in the form of json ?

[image] sumiranraut96: so in that are we just printing the content of .rs files in the form of json ? That is a misunderstanding. My code shows how to convert the contents of *.rs files under the “Object Repository” folder into a List<TestObject>. Once you got a List<TestObject>, you can im…

[image] kazurayam: My code shows how to convert the contents of *.rs files under the “Object Repository” folder into a List<TestObject>. Suprisingly enough, the Katalon API does NOT provide this feature natively. This fact proves, I think, that the Katalon developers had NEVER imagined a sit…

I suppose, you would want a report of reverse reference from TestObject to TestCase. The following post of mine may give you an idea: [image] How to check reference for my keyword Katalon Studio I have ever developed a solution named “TestObject Usage Report” This s…

Thanks @kazurayam for all your help. will check and post if i have any question .

@sumiranraut96 with all the effort you put into writing detailed questions (not ignoring the extra effort expended by Kaz) you would be much better off spending that time switching your Test Cases to use a POM and makeTo() – like I said . @vu.tran @albert.vu @Coty @sara.leslie And in support of @ka…

Extremely sorry @Russ_Thomas if its getting irritating for you. :slightly_smiling_face: regarding your 2 solution . I think POM may not be suitable for us considering technical capabilities of our team member. I loved the idea of makeTo or creating your object directly in test case. I just have one…

I think it would come down to how well you organize your POM and your method names to your objects (edit: and the state of your objects if they should change during your testing, such as after a Save). As you would have to change the pathway in the OR for any changed objects (hopefully, one object …

Let me go back to the question in the original post, as I haven’ replied to it. [image] sumiranraut96: Is there any way to directly change the reference from one test object with another ? lets say I have 2 test object …1. Login_Button and someone also created duplicate object which is Login_Bu…

I have already answered to your question at

As far as I see there is no easy way to refactor a mass of duplicating Test Objects you created.

I would like to hear from others whose name were mentioned by @sumiranraut96
