How can I select a person with the SetProperty function in Test Studio?

Hello, everyone!

I'm in the midst of writing tests for my app, but I'm stuck on how I select a person in a people combobox from a form with the SetProperty function on my test steps.

I thought it was enough to just write:

SetProperty(<combobox>.Selected; <{Value: <DisplayName>})

But it turns out that it does nothing to do the selection I'd hope, even though it looks like it at first when I play my test.

Can anyone help me in this regard, please?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Try using this schema to define a Person record:

{ '@odata.type':"#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedUser", Claims: "i:0#.f|membership|"& <EmailAddress>, Department: "", DisplayName: <DisplayName>, Email: <EmailAddress>, JobTitle: "", Picture: "" }
