Hi,

I am trying to use SWTBot to test my sirius rcp application. There are some edition tables in my app, and I want to automatically test the cell editors in those edition tables. However, I've met a problem. The cells in the edition table can be double clicked and then user can edit directly in it. My problem is that I cannot find a way to trigger the double click action for a selected cell using SWTBot.

I've tried SWTBotTreeItem.dobleClick, but that method cannot locate to a specified cell(column). I then tried the AbstractSWTBotTreeItem.doubleClickXY method, but the method seems doesn't work at all.

Is there any way to trigger the double click action in the specified edition table cell using SWTBot? Any advice helps.

Thanks.
Yufei Zhou

Did you check sirius own swtbot tests? Maybe you can find something there.

Hello,

Indeed, you can look at the method org.eclipse.sirius.tests.swtbot.ManualAirdModificationTest.directEditLabel(SWTBotEditor, String, char) or org.eclipse.sirius.tests.swtbot.table.CellEditionTest.testEditBooleanCellWithOtherColumnOnSameFeatureName() for examples on how we proceed to edit a table cell.

For SWTBot, a table is handled as a tree where a treeItem is a line of cells. Therefore, if you want to modify a cell, you will first navigate to its line. You can access it by its index or by the current value of one of its cell.

By index:
SWTBotTreeItem[] items = table.getTable().getAllItems();
items[1].select();

By value:
SWTBotTreeItem tableItem = editor.bot().tree().getTreeItem(oldValue);
tableItem.select();

Now that you have the line, you can click on the cell you want to edit by its index, for instance: tableItem.click(2);

This will set focus on the cell you want to edit. After that, as a user you would only need to "press the keyboard keys", that's why we added this helper: SWTBotUtils.directEditWithKeyboard(tableTree.widget, newValue);

Best regards,
Steve

Thank you very much for the guide. However, the real problem I'm facing is that I obtained the edition table's viewer and added a double click listener on it, but I cannot simulate the double click action in SWTBot. I guessed that editing table by double clicking has something similar with my custom double click event, but it seems that the method for testing table editor doesn't work on my custom event. Do you have any idea how to simulate my own double click listener( added from table's viewer.addDoubleClickListener) using SWTBot?

Hello,

Ok I see. You should look at the method org.eclipse.swtbot.swt.finder.widgets.SiriusSWTBotTableItem.doubleClick(). I have not found a test using it, but you can look at all the event it is notifying the table in order to process the double click.

Best regards,
Steve
