Answer / lakshmi v

Hi Mudasir,

Could you please elaborate with an example code snippet on
how we can read the text embedded in an image. I guess that
it may not be possible to do so.

One example of such a case is CAPTCHA (the distorted text
which appears while we sign up for most of the websites).
This text which can be read by a human is embedded and
presented as an image. The purpose of having CAPTCHA is not
to let any automated bots/tools perform the sign ups and
overload the website.

I'm involved in automation using silk test of an swing application running in a browser. There is a window whose name is a dynamic. i.e based on the input(eg: some filename) the window name keeps on changing. I need to capture the window name for every run of silk test case for different input filenames. I'm aware of GetName() in SilkTest, but its not working for me. Can anybody suggest me any logic to achieve this using silktest?
