NamedWidgetLocator

[hyshyshys]

Hi,

Sorry for this simple question, but I didn't find any answer or example in the documentation...

I'm using NamedWidgetLocator to locate widgets on dialogs and I want to know what is the best way to get the corresponding ButtonLocator, ComboLocator, ... locators to use the implemented interfaces provided by each sub classes of SWTWidgetLocator.

Suppose for example, that I know that my NamedWidgetLocator should locate a button :
1- How could I call the isSelected method provided by the IsSelected interface implemented by the ButtonLocator class? or I could I get a buttonLcator instance using the NamedWidgetLocator?

Code: Select all

NamedWidgetLocator widgetLocator = new NamedWidgetLocator("widgetName");
ButtonLocator buttonLocator = widgetLocator.??????
ui.assertThat(buttonLocator.isSelected());


2- Should I use the getAdapters methods to retrieve the IsSelected interface ? How?

Code: Select all

// Example that doesn't work
IsSelected selectableItem = (IsSelected) widgetLocator .getAdapter(IsSelected.class);


3- Could I use the IsSelectedCondition with NamedWidgetLocator ? How?

Hi Vincent,

This is a great question. The ability to do this is not quite complete. Could you send a note to support so we can work to get you a beta with a fix?

Thanks!

Hi Phil,

I found a solution to this question but the solution is not very clean from my point of view. It makes my tests not very "clean".

Code: Select all

   // Get locator
   NamedWidgetLocator namedWidgetLocator = new NamedWidgetLocator("MyNamed");

   // Get widget reference
   IWidgetReference widgetReference = (IWidgetReference)ui.find(namedWidgetLocator);

   // Get widget
   Object widget = widgetReference.getWidget();
   assert !(widget instanceof Button);

   // Get button
   final Button button = (Button)widget;
   final boolean[] result = new boolean[1];
      
        // Create sync runnable to verify that the button is selected
   Display.getDefault().syncExec(new Runnable() {
      public void run() {
         result[0] = button.getSelection();
      }                     
   });
   boolean selection = result[0];



I will submit this question to support...
Thanks

Thanks for posting your work-around and for following up with support.

We'll let you know when we have pushed a fix into a beta for you to try. Proper runtime support would definitely help to clean up your tests.
