OpenEdge Application Development Tools: Application-defined widget IDs for testing

Release 10.1A provides a method for specifying application-defined IDs for widgets to aid testing with third-party tools. With the WIDGET-ID attribute, you can specify a unique ID for a widget. The unique ID provides a means for third-party testing tools to consistently identify the widget across sessions. If you start a session with the Use Widget ID (–usewidgetid) startup parameter, Progress uses this application-defined widget ID when creating the widget at run time, instead of using the widget ID it normally generates by default.
