Generating identifiers for user interface elements of a web page of a web application
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a database system implemented using a server system, the database system configurable to cause;
analyzing, using a walkthrough authoring tool, first source code for a first web page of a first web application, the first web page comprising a plurality of user interface elements capable of being displayed at a user interface of a display device;
identifying, using the first source code, a first one of the user interface elements of the first web page as not having a static identifier or as having a dynamically generated identifier;
generating a unique identifier associated with the first user interface element;
generating second source code for the first web page, the second source code comprising the unique identifier associated with the first user interface element;
processing, using the walkthrough authoring tool, a first selection of the first user interface element;
responsive at least in part to processing the first selection, generating a first stage of a walkthrough, the first stage configurable to cause display of a second stage of the walkthrough based on a user selection of the first user interface element;
processing a request to interact with a presentation of the walkthrough;
displaying, using the second source code, the first stage of the walkthrough at the user interface of the display device; and
displaying, responsive to a user selecting the first user interface element, the second stage of the walkthrough.

Abstract
Disclosed are database systems, methods, and computer program products for generating identifiers for user interface elements of a web page of a web application. In some implementations, a server of a database system analyzes a copy of source code for a first web page. The first web page may comprise user interface elements capable of being generated from the source code. The server identifies one or more of the user interface elements of the first web page as not having a unique identifier or as having a dynamically generated identifier. The server generates, for each identified user interface element, a further unique identifier to be associated with the respective identified user interface element. The server generates edited source code comprising one or more further unique identifiers for the identified one or more user interface elements. The server stores the edited source code in a database of the database system.

1. A system comprising:
-
a database system implemented using a server system, the database system configurable to cause; analyzing, using a walkthrough authoring tool, first source code for a first web page of a first web application, the first web page comprising a plurality of user interface elements capable of being displayed at a user interface of a display device; identifying, using the first source code, a first one of the user interface elements of the first web page as not having a static identifier or as having a dynamically generated identifier; generating a unique identifier associated with the first user interface element; generating second source code for the first web page, the second source code comprising the unique identifier associated with the first user interface element; processing, using the walkthrough authoring tool, a first selection of the first user interface element; responsive at least in part to processing the first selection, generating a first stage of a walkthrough, the first stage configurable to cause display of a second stage of the walkthrough based on a user selection of the first user interface element; processing a request to interact with a presentation of the walkthrough; displaying, using the second source code, the first stage of the walkthrough at the user interface of the display device; and displaying, responsive to a user selecting the first user interface element, the second stage of the walkthrough. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A method comprising:
-
analyzing, using a walkthrough authoring tool, a first source code for a first web page of a first web application implemented using a database system, the first web page comprising a plurality of user interface elements capable of being displayed at a user interface of a display device, the first source code stored in a database of the database system; identifying, using the first source code, a first one of the user interface elements of the first web page as not having a static identifier or as having a dynamically generated identifier; generating a unique identifier associated with the first user interface element; generating second source code for the first web page, the second source code comprising the unique identifier associated with the first user interface element; processing, using the walkthrough authoring tool, a first selection of the first user interface element; responsive at least in part to processing the first selection, generating a first stage of a walkthrough, the first stage configurable to cause display of a second stage of the walkthrough based on a user selection of the first user interface element; processing a request to interact with a presentation of the walkthrough; providing, using the second source code, the first stage of the walkthrough at the user interface of the display device; and providing, responsive to a user selecting the first user interface element, the second stage of the walkthrough. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. A computer program product comprising computer-readable program code to be executed by at least one processor when retrieved from a non-transitory computer-readable medium, the program code comprising instructions configurable to cause:
-
analyzing, using a walkthrough authoring tool, a first source code for a first web page of a first web application implemented using a database system, the first web page comprising a plurality of user interface elements capable of being displayed at a user interface of a display device, the first source code stored in a database of the database system; identifying, using the first source code, a first one of the user interface elements of the first web page as not having a static identifier or as having a dynamically generated identifier; generating a unique identifier associated with the first user interface element; generating second source code for the first web page, the second source code comprising the unique identifier associated with the first user interface element; processing, using the walkthrough authoring tool, a first selection of the first user interface element; responsive at least in part to processing the first selection, generating a first stage of a walkthrough, the first stage configurable to cause display of a second stage of the walkthrough based on a user selection of the first user interface element; processing a request to interact with a presentation of the walkthrough; displaying, using the second source code, the first stage of the walkthrough at the user interface of the display device; and displaying, responsive to a user selecting the first user interface element, the second stage of the walkthrough. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
