Property sheets examples, etc

[jeremyweber]

Finally started to seriously implement Window Tester in our department, and I am having some issues ( probably my unfamiliarity with the product ), but perhaps someone could put me in the right direction.

We a ton of property sheets that need some basic and afterwards more complete validation. Starting out on the basic tests, I'd like to do something like...

Get all fields on a property sheet.
Validate their default values
For combo boxes validate their possible values.

Getting the property sheet doesnt seem to be a problem and once there labels seem be easy to get, but have trouble with the editable fields. We have text fields and combo boxes a plenty, i am doing something like

Code: Select all

      IWidgetLocator[] allPropertyWidgets = propertyView.findAll(ui);
      for (IWidgetLocator widgetLocator : allPropertyWidgets)
      {
         System.out.println("WL CL NAME: " + widgetLocator.getClass().getName());
         System.out.println("WL  NAME: " + widgetLocator.getClass().getSimpleName());
      }


Simply yields:
WL CL NAME: com.windowtester.runtime.locator.WidgetReference
WL NAME: WidgetReference

WidgetReference doesnt have any methods on it that would allow me to do something useful.. ( Also it looks like they api might be out of date, as getWidget isnt available on todays 1.7 stable build ).
I have attached an example property sheet. Given this, are there any suggestions on how to proceed.

Thanks!

Hey Jeremy,

The best thing would be for us to cook up an example that we can use to drive a local reproduction of your issue. Ideally this would be something we could use as a sample to share with other folks as well so the more standalone the repro is the better. Are there any standard eclipse property sheets that display this behavior? GEF ones or GMF ones? Any input greatly appreciated and will speed things along on our end.

Thanks!
