bot().textWithLabel() does not found appropriated text field [message #1800978]

Hello

I observed the following problem:
A Dialog has two text fields
- one with label ABC
- one with label ABCXYZ

I would like to find text field with label ABC, but method textWithLabel("ABC")
returns the second text field with label ABCXYZ. I use SWTbot version 2.2.1

Could you help me to resolve this issue

Thank you in advance
Alex

Hi Alex,

The (widget)WithLabel() methods are helpers in SWTBot that find a widget based on the text of the preceding Label in the Composite. It's expecting something like:

label1 [ text field 1 ]
label2 [ text field 2 ]

I'm guessing that in your application the Label is after the Text, is that correct? Like:

[ text field 1 ] label1
[ text field 2 ] label2

In that case you simply can't use textWithLabel() as currently implemented. Then I would suggest to find the Text by index with text(int).

Another possibility could be that the X in your ABCXYZ is the tab character \t. The WithLabel matcher uses the WithMnemonic matcher on the label, which truncates everything after the tab, so that it finds for example "Select All" in the menu item text "Select &All\tCtrl+A"...

Actually I have the following picture

ABC TextFied
ABCXYZ TextField2

By the way I found the following approach

final SWTBot bot = GeneralMethods.getBot(this.searchShell);
			@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
			final Matcher<Label> matcher = allOf(widgetOfType(Label.class), anyOf(withRegex("ABC$")));
			final Label label = bot.widget(matcher);
			final SWTBotLabel swtBotLabel  = new SWTBotLabel(label);

This code finds corrsponded label. but I don't know to jump to next text field
