Answer / madhu

You can use regular expression supported in 4test
for example for a window whose tag is
"$WelcomeXYZ"

You can make it dynamic using regular expression
by replacing the tag by
"$Welcome???" or "$Welcome*"

for example for a window whose tag is
"$WelcomeXYZ"

where XYZ keeps changing depending on user login or say
environment due to which scripts fail.

Answer / skylark

Whenever you want to identify dynamic objects, use "Index"
(e.g. #1), "Window Location" or "Prior text". You can use
them together using "multitag" .Generally, those properties
dont change in dynamic objects
