Hi,

I just created some dummy SWTBotTestCases to check out. So far SWTBot
looks very promising for testing our Eclipse based application.

I noticed in the Eclipse Console View that there are some log4j
warnings. Not being familiar with log4j yet, is this something that
SWTBot should resolve or something that I may need to correct in my
Eclipse installation?

The warnings:
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger
(net.sf.swtbot.matcher.AbstractMatcher).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

Thanks,
Joe

This happens when log4j can't find a log.xml.

See http://swtbot.sourceforge.net/faq.html#logging for info on how to
fix this.

Thanks for pointing me to the faq Ketan. Adding the logging xml file
corrected the warnings. I am encountering some IllegalArgumentExceptions
related to the logging now. I will add another posting for that issue.

I struggled with this a bit, so in case this can help someone in the future... if your tests are declared in plugin fragments hosted in the tested plugin, you need to put the "Eclipse-Buddy" declaration in the plugin's MANIFEST; it seems that putting it in the fragment's manifest doesn't make a difference.
