Controls

A Control is a declaration in a PageObject, and is a representation in code of an element. An element is the representation from the UI.

Control and PageObject as elements

QualityMate uses interfaces to declare a control in the PageObject class.

public class App : PageObject
{
    // Controls with their interface
    public ILabel myLabel { get; set; }
    public ITextBox myTextBox { get; set; }
    public IButton OKButton { get; set; }
}

To use a QualityMate interface you need to add it as a type of the defined control from the Mobilize.Qualitymate.ControlInterfaces namespace.

The interfaces do not need to be implemented because QualityMate injects the implementation depending on the selected technology.
