You can set the recognition property for screens, fields and characters
to increase the flexibility of your script when defining a screen. Each object
has a set of recognition properties, which are typically established during
recording. To find an object in the application-under-test during playback, Functional Tester compares the object in the application
with recognition properties in the test object map. Each property of a test
object has an associated recognition weight value, which is a number from
0 to 100. Functional Testeruses the weight
value for each recognition property to determine the importance of the property.
