Scan tabs in Salesforce Console applications

Salesforce Console applications contain two different types of tab bars:

• The global navigation tab bar, which is always visible.

• A sub-tab bar, which you open if you click on any link under a global navigation tab.

Scan tabs on Salesforce Console applications

As the global navigation tab bar is visible by default, Tosca XScan can identify its controls easily. The sub-tab bar is not open by default, so you have to open at least one sub-tab item prior to scanning. This allows Tosca XScan to identify and scan the sub-tab bar and all of its controls.

To distinguish between the two tab types, the tabs have different AssociatedLabel values:

• The global navigation tab has the AssociatedLabel value TabBar.

• The sub-tab bar has the AssociatedLabel value SubTabBar.

In this example, you want to scan TabItems on either type of tab bars. To do so, you filter for TabItem controls in the Advanced View of Tosca XScan. Filter for TabItems
