Why not define a UI module that will return multiple matches. Then, for each return value, we can provide the corresponding XPath for it (reverse Engineering of jQuery selector might be a bit more difficult). In this way, you can act on the returned UI directly. This indeed is useful for certain scenarios, but it may make your test code difficult to maintain. If possible, define a UI module for each UI you want to test first. On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at 5:33 PM, Super Fan <[email protected]> wrote: > It would help.
