Salesforce Element Repositories

In Testsigma, elements from Salesforce are automatically learned after successfully synchronizing metadata. This enables the swift usage of elements in test cases, eliminating the need to create elements manually. This document discusses the repositories of Salesforce elements.

Naming Conventions

1. Field Names: This will be in the ObjectName_FieldName format.

   • Example: If the element name is Account_CreatedDate, Account is the object, and the created date Field is CreatedDate.

   • Example: A screen displaying account details should be named Account.
