Window Tester dependancy on Eclipse Platform version changes

[manikanti]

How tightly Window Tester is dependent on Eclipse Platform i.e. assume say the product that am testing needs an upgrade in future to Eclipse platform 3.6, will WindowTester that currently using Eclipse Platform 3.5, also need to be changed?
What are Window Tester dependency on Eclipse plugins version changes?

Thanks,

The WindowTester binaries will be largely future-safe (we hope! ). The tests themselves may require a bit of updating. For instance, we have a few spots like this in our own tests:

Code: Select all

String id = Eclipse.VERSION.isAtLeast(3,4) ? "org.eclipse.search.OpenSearchDialogPage" : "org.eclipse.search.ui.openSearchDialog";
ui.click(new ContributedToolItemLocator(id));


and another example:

Code: Select all

private static final String DELETE_RESOURCES_SHELL_TITLE = Eclipse.VERSION.isAtLeast(3,4) ? "Delete Resources" : "Confirm Project Delete";


The Eclipse utility class can be found here:

Hope this helps!
