Maybe the developers used an object that's so cutting-edge, it's not even in the test tool's vocabulary yet. They're probably patting themselves on the back for being so innovative.

I'm just glad I'm not the one developing this application. Dealing with unrecognizable objects sounds like a real headache!

Running the application on a desktop and seeing if the tool can recognize the object is a good idea. If that works, it could save us a lot of time and effort.

Asking the developers to remove or change the object seems like the easiest solution, but it might not be the best approach. We should explore other options first before involving the development team.

The first thing I would do is investigate whether the object can be recognized by other test execution tools in the market. That's the most practical solution to ensure we can effectively test the new application.
