I'm involved in automation using silk test of an swing
application running in a browser. There is a window whose
name is a dynamic. i.e based on the input(eg: some
filename) the window name keeps on changing. I need to
capture the window name for every run of silk test case for
different input filenames. I'm aware of GetName() in
SilkTest, but its not working for me. Can anybody suggest
me any logic to achieve this using silktest?

In Silk Test there is a function called Browser.GetActive()
This function returns the title of the active window.
Whenever your dynamic window opens up make sure it is active
by closing all other browsers if any using the
Browser.closeOthers() function. Then use the getActive
function to return the window name which is your required
output.

Answer / knk

Since based on the input we give (say variable sInput), the window appears, Its better to write descriptive code by giving the property of the window as the input you have given previously i.e (sInput) and activating the window with setactive() method.
