Annotation Type CastMember

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Target(value=FIELD)
public @interface CastMember

We use this annotation to inject an actor into a test. If the test has a @Managed driver, the actor will have the ability to interact with this driver. If there are more than one @Managed driver fields in the test, we can use the browserField attribute to assign one of them to this actor. If there are no @Managed driver fields, the actor will be assigned a unique driver automatically.
