RecordingFailedException

[Sonali]

Hi,

We are trying to record tests for a standalone SWT/swing application.

While recording the application is launched and we tried to record a browse button which opens a Open file dialog to select the file.

As soon as the browse button is clicked,Open dialog appears.The application hangs up there and i get following exception in the recording console.

Could you please let me know what is the issue here?

This was sent to support as well. Here's the initial response:

You are encountering a few known issues. (1) our recording support for hybrid SWT/Swing applications is not complete (the recorder does not know how to switch between widget systems even though the runtime does. (2) the browse button likely brings up a native file browser dialog and natives are not handled by the recorder. For the time being these interactions cannot be recorded.
