I know this is not the right forum to ask this question but there are
so many people here who are experienced and have faced this issue as
myself. So here it goes...

I have been thinking about the points which affect UI testability for
sometime. When it comes to unit testing there are specific points like
Dependency Injection, usage of Singletons as factors which affect it.

Similarly it must be possible to get a set of points which we must be
able to do or avoid to help UI testability. I need your help in
collecting these points so that it will help us while we think about
design for testability at UI level.

Some points to get started

1) Building custom controls like grids or tables either from scratch
or from available controls. Sometimes I have seen people drawing their
own controls which makes testing extremely difficult
2) Auto generation of UI code. Most of the time it leaves us with
randomly generated locators
3) Not using normal locators like id, name which makes testing
complex.
4) Using technologies which don't have testability in built like
Javafx.
5) Highly asynchronous process.

Please let me know about your thoughts and challenges you faced in UI
testability.

Sai
