### 3.20.5. Mapping (assigning) collected technical names to component names

Once you have collected the components from the AUT that you will use during the test (Section 3.20.4, “Collecting components (technical names) from the AUT”), you can then map them to the component names you used in your Test Cases.

1. In the Object Mapping Editor, you will see the component names you have created (Section 3.15.2, “Creating new component names”) and/or used in your Test Cases, as well as the names you have collected from the AUT. The names are shown in the unassigned and assigned names areas (Section 3.20.2.3, “Working with categories in the Object Mapping Editor”).

2. To map a component name to a technical name, you must drag the unassigned component name onto the corresponding unassigned technical name that you want this component name to refer to.

3. When a component name has been assigned to a technical name, the joined names appear in the assigned names area. The component type for the component name is adjusted so that it reflects the type of component it has been mapped to (Section 3.15.9, “Understanding the component hierarchy”).

   | You can also ”unassign” component names from technical names by dragging the component name back into the unassigned component names area

4. Save the changes in the editor.

   | You will only be able to map component names to technical names if their types are compatible (Section 3.15.9, “Understanding the component hierarchy”).
