Ketan,

I have been writing a test case with SWTBot and one of the requirements is
to type a keyboard shortcut CTRL + SHFT + Enter. I can successfully press
the first two keys, but am unable to press the Enter key because in the
SWT class there is not equivalent for SWT.ENTER. Below are a few lines of
code I have written. Any Suggestions on how I can test the pressing of the
Enter key?

KeyStroke ctrl = KeyStroke.getInstance(SWT.CTRL, 0);
KeyStroke shift = KeyStroke.getInstance(SWT.SHIFT, 0);
//KeyStroke ret = KeyStroke.getInstance(0, SWT.???);
bot.sleep(2000);
//k.pressShortcut(ctrl, shift, ret);

Thanks,
Mike

Keystrokes.CR and Keystrokes.LF is what you're looking for.

Some more keystrokes here:

Hi, I have a SWTBot test where I open the editor, type in text, and then save the file. The data ends up on one single line. I would like to insert a "press Enter" after each text line in the loop sequence so I end up with 10 records in the file.

I have tried incorporating the suggestion here, but can't seem to get it right. It completely ignores the keystrokes. Could someone please let me know what I'm missing?

SWTBotEditor edit = bot.editorByTitle(dataset);
SWTBotEclipseEditor textEditor = edit.toTextEditor();
KeyStroke enter = KeyStroke.getInstance(SWT.CR, 0);
KeyStroke lf = KeyStroke.getInstance(SWT.LF, 0);
for(int l=1; l<11; l++) {
textEditor.typeText("test line " + l + enter + lf);
}
bot.sleep(5000);
bot.editorByTitle(dataset).saveAndClose();

Thanks,

Michelle

That is incorrect usage of the api. The correct usage would be:

textEditor.typeText("test line " + l + "\n");

Thanks again for your quick response, Ketan. After I had posted my question I kept trying to get this to work. I found this code was also successful without using the KeyStroke specification:

textEditor.typeText("test line " + l);
textEditor.pressShortcut(SWT.CR, SWT.LF);
