Where is Automated GUI Recorder? [message #131083]

We are searching for a GUI test tool or framework for testing RCP
applications.

I downloaded the TPTP version of Eclipse
(eclipse-rcp-europa-winter-win32.zip) and installed the latest TPTP
(webinstall). But I discovered that I only can do HTTP recording then.

We need to record SWT events instead. Is this possible with TPTP?

It seems to be possible according to
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/test/documents/userguides/Intro- Auto-GUI.html#2.0

But there is no wizard "TPTP Automated GUI Tests" in my Eclipse. Why not?

Another question is, whether that only records in XML or if it can be
recorded as Java statements too?

I found it. I needed to install the technology previews at the TPTP
download site.

Hi Hans,
In TPTP 4.5, the AGR became an As-Is component (see
http://wiki.eclipse.org/4.5_Component_Reorganization). Previously, it was a
Technology Preview.

Hi Hans,
Note, the AGR only supports Eclipse applications and not RCP/SWT
applications.

An AGR recording is an XML macro containing events on widgets for
playback. Only verification hooks are implemented in Java code.
