Hi,

I am having a tough time installing swtbot in my eclipse environment and
getting a sample program to work.

Is there a document that has step by step instructions on all the zip
files that are required, and instructions on where the jar files need to
be copied to in the Eclipse plugin development environment?

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,

There's a user guide linked from the home page:

Personaly I found that document rather confusing. It talks about .releng
projects, dependencies not available and to be added manually, patched
versions of Eclipse frameworks, building update sites... All things
which seem targeted to SWTBot developers and not plain users.

I followed the following steps to test it under 3.4:

1. Add the update site URL provided on
http://www.eclipse.org/swtbot/downloads.php for your target (3.4 or 3.5)
2. From that update site, install both features "SWTBot SWT Features"
and "SWTBot Eclipse Features". Restart Eclipse.
3. To check if it is properly installed, open the "Run Configurations"
dialog. You should have a new category called "SWTBot Test".
4. Create a new plug-in projet to do a quick test.
5. Add the following dependencies:
org.eclipse.swtbot.swt.finder
org.eclipse.swtbot.eclipse.finder
org.junit4
6. Copy/paste the TestSampleDialog class from
http://wiki.eclipse.org/SWTBot/UsersGuide in that plug-in. There are
some deprecation warnings, but it should compile.
7. Select the TestSampleDialog class in the Package Explorer, and do a
"Run as > SWTBot Test". After a while you should see the new Eclipse
runtime opening and automatically creating a new Java project from the
wizard.

Point noted :) The initial guide was aimed at users like yourself. Seems
it was edited for people wanting to build swtbot themselves. I'll move
the content around.

A previous snapshot of the userguide[1] may help (although it is still a
bit outdated). The changes being to the namespace of the code and the
following dependencies:
- org.eclipse.swtbot.swt.finder
- org.eclipse.swtbot.eclipse.finder
- org.hamcrest
- org.junit4
- org.eclipse.swtbot.junit4_x
- org.apache.log4j

Also there's a tutorial[2] that I should link to from the home page.

Guys,

Thanks for your suggestions, I was able to run the test and am now looking
into how I can incorporate it into our UI testing.
