Try using xpath instead of name in the setCheckbox attribute example: xpath=//input[contains(@name,'tcf_mpf_file_groups')]

From: ikenne...@fexco.com To: webtest@lists.canoo.com Subject: [Webtest] Query on how to select a checkbox Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2014 17:27:16 +0000 Hi, Within 1 of our tests we select a checkbox based on the id. However if the id’s change our tests are breaking and we find that it takes a while to fix the tests. The HTML we have is: HTML: <input class="checkbox" type="checkbox" value="10137,Test Group,131,1" name="tcf_mpf_file_groups_[57]"> <span>TestGroup</span> The Webtest command we use is: <setCheckbox name="tcf_mpf_file_groups_[57]"/> Is there anything else we can use to set the checkbox so that we would not be dependent on the name? Our issue is that the name i.e. tcf_mpf_file_groups_[57] can sometime change to be tcf_mpf_file_groups_[58], thus causing our test to fail. thanks in advance, /Iain… Iain Kennelly Backoffice QA Team Lead FEXCO Merchant Services FEXCO Centre Iveragh Road Killorglin Co.
