I understand in case of web browser application we can store the descriptor elements as object repository and so the labels even if the change in future the bots can cope up with with minimal and easy changes to object repo
In case of mainframe automation , we normally use terminal session or emulator session So it is requiring to store the row column positions[Screen Scrapping]. There is no selectors or descriptors
it has been possible to open the terminal emulator as browser application. Is it possible to extend this selector,descriptor concept to mainframe screens also, so that such bots also can be easily maintained
Practically it might not as the way terminal applications are built like command prompts…even in a command prompt if you see you cannot indicate inside it but whole of application only…
Cheers
Short answer: No it’s not possible to automate terminal session opened on a web browser.
Long answer:
Terminal opened from web browser will be streamed in the form of images/video. So if you try to capture any ui elements, it will consider whole screen as a single ui element.
You can manually also check by opening developer option on web browser (f12) and it will show you single Ui element only.
