Parameterizing XPath

I want to parameterize an object’s xpath value - how can I do this in a DDT approach without passing the parameter value into a script? I want to define the object’s xpath before I get to calling a separate test case in my script. That make sense?

Any help would be appreciated!

Any Test Object property can be parameterized using the ${} handle notation:

You can then pass a value to this at runtime as follows:

findTestObject('path/to/my/object', ['someId' : 'xyz'])

So for your data-driven approach, you would replace ‘xyz’ with the parameter from your data file that references your value.
