Hello
I have been using Katalons Chrome Web Recorder for capturing web elements, and for the most part it has worked well when playing back tests.
I have got all my test suites passing in Chrome but have come to test in Firefox and found that some tests fail and some pass ( im using the same objects that pass in some tests but fail in others, which is really rather unexpected ).
As this is rather odd and cant pin down a reason as to why this happening, it was pointed out in this post ( thanks Russ ) that creating my own test objects in code is a better way to go ( and stop using the Web Recorder and Object Repository ).
As im not too sure which way to go on this, are there any recommended resources / tutorials to refer to get me started?
Thanks for any help / advice.
Thanks @Mate

As to your question, not that I’m aware of, unfortunately. However, the thread Mate linked to is a good starting point. But realize that “things move on” quickly in this world. I’m not saying there’s anything wrong in that thread – it’s completely fine – but I’m now using only JavaScript and jQuery to locate elements in the AUT and using dynamic TestObjects created “by hand”, in memory, when I need them (which is quite rare, actually – in fact, I’m struggling to think of one).
So, summing up, start with that thread: it will give you a good grounding in "where we’re at. If you have questions, post here. Me and my mate Mate ( 
) are sure to be around…
Hope that helps.

Thanks Mate and Russ,

Cheers for your help, very much appreciated
