Are there any guidelines available on how to write JUnit tests for editors built on top of Graphiti?

I mean JUnit tests that simulate the behavior of users, i.e. add pictograms, connections, move things around, load/save editor, etc.

Hi,

in Graphiti, we use SWTBot to test our framework, see
http://www.eclipse.org/swtbot/
You may have a look at our
org.eclipse.graphiti.bot.tests
plugin in the cvs repo to see how it is done.

Since we test our framework by testing some test tool on top of it, the same technique can be applied by any client of the framework.

Best, Tim
