UI Automation for Delphi application

$

Hi,

I have been tasked with writing automated tests for a huge legacy application written in Delphi.  I have looked at using UI Automation from a mstest or nunit harness(C#), but have come across a major stumbling block.  When I use UI Spy to look at the delphi application, the Automation ID returned from every control is a arbitrary number. It changes every time the application is launched. 

 

I have been looking at the documentation on MSDN, and I am guessing that this can be rectified by implementing a custom provider.  Any pointers as to how this can be accomplished in Delphi?  We have full access to the source code for the Delphi application.

 

Thanks,

Erling
