How does TOSCA identify objects without XPath?

TOSCA identifies objects without XPath by using its model-based test automation approach. Instead of relying on fragile XPath expressions, TOSCA scans the application and creates a business-friendly object model with stable properties such as control type, labels, IDs, and attributes. These properties are stored in the TOSCA Modules, allowing tests to remain resilient even when the UI changes. TOSCA’s steering mechanism dynamically adjusts object identification at runtime, reducing maintenance effort. This makes automation more reliable and scalable, especially for complex applications. Learning this approach is a key focus area in Tricentis TOSCA Training for beginners and professionals.
