I wanted to get the ICSC and RE** values i.e CC30 and DD respectivly.
When I spied using HTML mode i got these values once i selected the X and Y attributes. For both the values it happened same. Is it good way to use X,Y attributies or will my code not work after some days? as of now its working fine.

X,Y Attributes represent the static co-ordinate position on the screen. Try using other attributes in combination like Ordinals, Class, title etc., to create finger print of the element. You can use Path attribute, but for heavy pages Path might become slow. If there are no other combinations working in favor, X,Y attributes would be the last resort, but with change in the screen size (Zoom) X, Y attributes might not yield good results.
