We have automation testing implemented using selenium in the application and using some of the test operator IDs. As the test operator IDs and their passwords are stored in the automation, if the password expires all the scripts got failed and manual effort required to update all operator ID passwords in the automation script.

To solve the above problem we checked the "This is an unattended operator (robot)" checkbox under the security tab of the operator ID instance so that the password expiry policy set in the system does not apply to these test operators, but found that for these test operators also the password getting expired with set password expiration time in the system.

So please let me know some approach to follow so that the password expiration policy can be skipped for these specific set of operator IDs created for testing automation.
