  • 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.
  • variable argument:
    • If the variable in argument variable has not been declared, the action creates it as a global.
    • If the variable argument is left empty, TestArchitect supplies a global variable with the name _result.
  • 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.
