How to get a particular text from a Swing application using Jubula's Java API [message #1809252]

I am using Jubula 8.7.1 and Java 8. I have used the Java API to automate a few actions in a Swing application.

I have some text that I want to catch in a may be a String object from the app. Is there any way I can do that. I have used 'TextComponent' to identify the region in the app. But 'TextComponent' does not have any getter method that return a String.

There are two possibilities:
The first one is to use readValue:
Result readValue = text.readValue();
String text = readValue.getReturnValue();

The second one is to find the correct property name an us getPropertyValue:
Result propertyValue = text.getPropertyValue("text");
String text = propertyValue.getReturnValue();

Hi Marvin,

From which class Result needs to be imported ??

Result readValue= filesize.readValue();
String text=readValue.getReturnValue();

I am getting error for add cast to Result when I am importing Result from org.eclipse.jubula.client.Result;

also when I add the type cast to Result class
Result readValue= (Result) filesize.readValue();

then I get ClassCast Exception

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.jubula.communication.internal.message.MessageCap cannot be cast to org.eclipse.jubula.client.Result

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Nidhi

If you are having the MessageCap you did not have executed tha action.
You must execute the action first. Or you can use the ActionHandler, they are executing the action directly and than you can use the example above.
