      4. EXISTS on GUI form
   3. Enabled

      2. The Object is enabled
      3. The Object is not busy
   4. Displayed
      1. The Object is not covered by another GUI element
3. NATA
   1. Number of Arguments
      1. Number of arguments to pass in matches number of arguments Object's method can accept
   2. Type of Arguments
      1. Type of arguments to pass in matches type of arguments Object's method can accept
      2. Type of supplied data matches types that Object's method can accept
4. LI
   1. Log
      1. Negative reporting: report ALL fails occurred
      2. Positive reporting: report success for major steps
      3. Report names of the steps executed

      7. Report cut-off conditions used (timeout, etc.)
   2. Investigate
      1. Capture any pop-up messages
      2. Capture Application, Window, and Object state
      3. Match actual state model with defined state model, report per component
