Summary

The skills that you have picked up in this chapter will take you a long way in designing and building your own business objects. We looked at how we can use the Write stage to enter text in text boxes. Next, we used the Read stage to pick up text on the screen. The robot can be taught to understand the text by clever use of string functions and Decision stages. Finally, we learned about the Wait stage and how it can be used to check for the existence of elements on the screen before we interact with them.

We concluded the chapter with a self-guided tutorial that serves as a review on all the topics that we have learned so far. We hope you had as much fun as we did building the object.

In the next chapter, we will take a look at how we can read the Shopping list from an Excel spreadsheet.
