Hi Vasanth,
It's trivial to add support for individual components, the complexity is
in bringing all the pieces together.
The recorder code is available in a different branch in SVN if you're
interested in looking at it. It's nowhere near as smart as you'd like it
to be and involves substantial amount of work to make it work for all
controls (trees being the most complex of them all).
Having a recorder is a good point for people to get started and I'd
encourage you to get your hands dirty into that part of the code if
you'd like.

Hello,
I have a questiong regarding the Test Recorder.
What was its output? Was it a custom internanl format that describes the sequence of actions, or does it directly generate Java code of a SWTBot JUnit test that uses the Bot, so that one would only have to enrich it or to copy paste it wherever?
The second solution would be very welcome! If it is this one that was using the Test Recorder, I'll give it a try. Otherwise, I would be interested to have your opinion on how difficult it would be to implement.
Regards,

The output format was Java (and possibly other languages like jruby, groovy)
Vasanth(copied on the email) is taking a stab at the recorder, you may
want to work with him to see if you can go faster :)
Cheers!
