Jiffy supports the following familiarization approaches:

  • Control based
  • Dynamic control
  • Image with anchor OCR
  • Pure Image

UI Learn provides two options:

General Familiarization: This is the existing familiarization technique.

Table Familiarization: This is used to familiarize table content in the web applications. With this we can read the values from the tables and could use it for iterations.

NOTE : In earlier version of Jiffy , we had default data tables which consists of email attachment and file explorer. In addition to that we have 2 column table to 10 column tables to support this feature.
