UI-PRR-002 - Simulate Type

Rule ID: UI-PRR-002

Scope: Activity

Default action: Warning

This rule applies only to activities that are part of the Classic UI Automation experience.

Description

This rule checks for all the activities that have the SimulateType property selected. Using SimulateType does not rely on the keyboard driver, so it provides a faster way of performing type actions. On the other hand, some applications might not support this interaction type, so this rule provides a list of all activities that have this property selected.

For more details about input methods, refer to the UI Automation page.
