Hi Yolo,
You can check more details about test id on:

Let's take a simple use case of a card visual.
From the Testing perspective. Testcase will verify Title, Text value.
Interested path will be to search element id (or data-testid) by the card and then sub sections.

document.getElementsByClassName("visualContainerGroup")
gives all the visuals on the page.
In Developer Tools,
I also see name attribute being part of the div, looks like auto generated.
I further checked in (report.json) .pbib file that name is generated when the instance is created, seems it is same as div attribute value.
data-testid are present with common values.
For e.g. if we want to get the title of a card.
document.getElementsByName("d6c41b97a22e0323e04d")[0].querySelectorAll("[data-testid='visual-title']");
where d6c41b97a22e0323e04d is a name field.
Can someone confirm, this is the right way or other standard way (API) exists?
