Description

Wickets unique markup IDs cause problems writing automated tests.

They should be changed so that the first instance of a component with an ID of "foo" on a page would have a generated ID of "foo", the second would be "foo2" and so on. This would make the IDs consistent enough that they could be used for testing.

See the following discussion for more info.
