Problem with SWTBotEclipseEdittor [message #33070]

Hi ,

After changing the perspective to that of my plug-in, I am creating a
project and then i am trying to write some code in the file.
For this i am using the following code

SWTBotEclipseEditor fileEditor=bot.editor("Filename");
fileEditor.setText("This is test Text");

but the test is failing at the line bot.editor("Filename"); throwing
exception

" org.eclipse.swtbot.swt.finder.exceptions.WidgetNotFoundExcep tion : Could
not find any control inside view Filename."

I tried this with the java project. In that case it is working fine.But in
the case of my plug-in it is throwing this exception.

I didn't understand what could be the reason for this.
Any pointers for this will be higly helpful to me.

thanks in advance.
Santhosh

You need to provide the filename as 'filename.extension'. In case of
errors, you'll also find some screenshots in the screenshots folder
useful for diagnosing.

hi ketan,

Thanks for the reply. I am providing the filename as
"FileName.extension" only. Even then the exception is thrown.

Is there any issues with the SWTBotEclipseEditor that it can
identify only the editors which are implemented by extending a particular
class or such? As it is not able to identify my editor.

I didn't find the screenshots folder in my current directory. Where
can i find that. For that i need to do any additional configuration?

Please throw some light on these aspects.

Regards,
Santhosh

Hi,

I had the same problem and it appeared that the editor I am trying to
write in is some kind of graphical editor. That was the reason why no
controls were found.
