Learning about the technology-specific extensions
The Desktop SDK includes three extensions that are specific to Siebel, SAPGUI, and SAPUI5. When we're automating the applications that have been developed using these extensions, we must select the right technology to capture the applications and pages. The applications that are developed with these technologies use type controls that are specific to the technology. For example, pages in SAPGUI applications will include buttons of the GuiButton type, which work like any normal button that's added to a Windows application. Similarly, Siebel applications are web applications that use ActiveX objects to define the controls in a page rather than standard HTML objects.
There may be benefits or limitations regarding the actions that can be performed on the controls that have been developed with the specific technology. Developers do not need to see any difference in the controls or actions to be performed on the controls if the...
