Result

Although TestArchitect provides access to native properties, you should use it very carefully. Because accessing native properties can perform critical or unsafe operations in the AUT that may change the AUT's current state.
property argument: You can find native properties in the Native Properties tab of the Interface Viewer.
The expected argument can accept regular expressions. Note that argument values that include regular expressions must be entirely enclosed in curly braces {}. As an example, {[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}} specifies the pattern for an acceptable email address. More simply, .* represents the general wildcard for regular expressions, so that {.*arch.*} matches starch, marching, testarchitect, etc.
This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string <ignore> is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to <ignore>, the action is skipped during execution.
