I'm about to implement a custom Eclipse text editor, for a specific language, based on EMF models. In order to test the UI stuff of my editor, i.e. folding/unfolding, syntax highlighting, context actions, etc. I'm looking for a decent test tool.
As far as I'm aware of, Jubula is not really built to test (text) editing operations.
Do I miss something?

Yes, that is correct. Observation would be an extra difficulty since you would have to generate an abstraction from multiple single UI actions. Definitely not for the faint of heart!
For most use cases support for actions and verifications is sufficient and reasonable easy to implement. If you know how to do it you are in the 3 days ballpark.
