Hi charansai,

The ids of components are generated each time the page loads - so you will never get the same ids for HTML tags in the dom, that is why selenium fails. You have three options:

• Add attributes to your components that selenium can use to identify them. We use data-attributes, these will remain unique and consistent.
• Use javascript to determine the uuid (dom id) of your element from the id you assign in ZK
• Implement ID Generator

The last two of these are covered in this link: https://www.zkoss.org/wiki/ZKDeveloper'sReference/Testing/Testing_Tips
