The Params object used by the test method , As shown below:
[GeneratedCode("Coded UITest Builder", "10.0.40219.1")]
public class StartOccUIParams
{
#region Fields
///< br /> public string UIUsernameBoxEditText = "username";
/// Type'username' in'usernameBox' text box

///

public string UIPasswordBoxEditSendKeys = "9927b9lJLxdZrqR1G+zHC2MA==";
#endregion
}
< p>This is fine, but I need to retrieve the username and password from the CSV data source to test the failure situation. The question is, how do I convert the password retrieved from the CSV into an encrypted form that can be used with the password box? I checked SecureString, but it does not expose an API to get the encrypted string, and I doubt its format is correct.
var loginParams = UIMap.StartOccUiParams;
loginParams.UIUsernameBoxEditText = TestContext.DataRow["User"].ToString();
var password = TestContext.DataRow["Password"].ToString();
// how do I encrypt password to use below?
loginParams.UIPasswordBoxEditSendKeys = "encrypted password";
Encrypts a given text for passing to playback as password property.
I used Coded UI Test Builder to create a recorded action to enter the user credentials into the login window. This initial recording hard-coded the encrypted password into the public domain.

Use Playback.EncryptText
