Object identified despite having no information - mjt - 07-02-2015
Is there any hidden repository information? I've had some cases where an object is being identified despite there being no identifying information.
(The web page has several WebEdits. The object in the repository has had all description properties and visual relation identifiers removed; ordinal identifier is set to "None"; smart identification is disabled. Nevertheless, UFT picks out a particular object.)

Found answer:
Hidden identifier called "_xpath".
Fix was as follows: Manually add an identifier called "_xpath" and immediately remove it.
