Hello Thomas,

frankly, you cannot expect list members to debug your
ComponentNotFoundExceptions for you, especially not without a run-log.
The steps you included that lead to the exception bear no relevance
here, what is required is in-depth knowledge of your SUT. Besides, we
already explained to you that your web-application is almost
untestable without at least some basic custom resolver.

Still, let me answer part of your questions: Of course there is a
manual _chapter_ 5:

https://archive.qfs.de/qftest/manual/en/user_components.html#usec_components

(You were referring to _part_ IV)

Please also take a look at the videos about component recognition
problems:
