Hi,
I am currently trying to create a test for some feature in Eclipse3.7(Indigo).
I am able to map every of its components necessary for the test except the Menus which in this case are:
- The main menus which are at the top most portion of the application (The ones that are labeled :'File', 'Edit', 'Source' ... all the way to 'Help')
- Every menus that appear when you right-click something, e.g. a treenode.
There are many of them and they are all cannot be collected by Jubula (there is no green border around them, either).
I am using the current Jubula1.1 and running it on Windows XP sp3, and I've also tried it with Eclipse 3.5 and Eclipse 3.6 which I ran into the exact same problem.

Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Nack.

Hi,

As documented in the Reference Manual, you do not need to map menu bars, as they are found automatically during test execution. In addition, the menu selection is done not by mapping the individual items, but as a content- or index-based path:

Tha FAQ referenced in this forum post:
http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/262206/757126/#msg_757126

Gives more information on when Jubula uses content to navigate.

There is also a cheat sheet on working with the menu actions available in the help menu.

Regards,
Alex
