icon5.gif  SWTBot support for TableCombo? [message #1755834] Wed, 08 March 2017 14:04 Go to next message

Hi,

We have started using the Nebula TableCombo in our RCP application.
As we extensively write Unit tests also for our visual components, we also tried to write a SWTBot test for the TableCombo.

However, we have not been successful for instances on programmatically making the TableCombo opening the table drop down (as SWTBot does not seem to be able to find the button next to the combo box).

Is there some special SWTBot class for the TableCombo available? Or sample code how to do this?

Best,
MP

Hi Matthias,

I don't know why SWTBot cannot find the button. It is a normal button in a composite [1].

I have looked in the TC code and the dropdown is also dropped when the text control is clicked.

Please let us know if you can solve it that way.

Best regards,

Wim

Hi,

I've uploaded an SWTBot test which simply instantiates a TableCombo in a shell and tries to find the combo box with an SWTBot.

It fails as SWTBot cannot find the combo box (also alternatively searching for a text or a button sub widget does not work). Hence, the workaround you proposed does not work also. Sad

When using a plain JFace ComboBox instead of TableCombo, the test works.

Hi Matthias,

Maybe we need to create a special finder. I have found a finder for Nebula Gallery [1]. I think you might want to file a bug against SWT Bot to request finder for TableCombo. I also suggest you ask in the SWT Bot forum for pointers. Please post the link to that thread here.

Best regards,

Wim

Hi,

I've finally found the time to post an according request into the SWTBot forum. See https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=1085402&goto=1758935&#msg_1758935
