Yes, RIATest can run on any public attribute. It is just that the id attribute is used by default and results in a bit cleaner script syntax. It also useful during recording, and is shown in the object inspector view. However data-flex-id attribute is also fully usable. We can probably even teach RIATest to use it by default for all DOM elements which are generated by FlexJS.
Similarly for the automationName property (which is currently a standard property for mx.core.UIComponent) would be best to populate it into data-automation-name DOM attribute. Tigran.
