Testing property view editor

[hyshyshys]

Hi all,

I want to validate the content of the property view (advanced tab) of my rcp application. My application provides a custom property view where user could edit the property items. Moreover, the property view provides different kind of editors for each property.

Here is my problem:

When I click on a property row of the view, an editor is automatically created and opened as in the following figure. However, I'm not able to get a reference to the editor using WindowTester. I tried with many different combo locators type but it always failed.

For example, in the previous image, how could i get a reference to the selected combobox used to modify the "action on overruns" property.

I tried different methods, but here are some:

1- Using a standard combolocator without the parent argument.
ComboLocator locator = new ComboLocator()

In this case, it returns the fMultipleWidgetsFoundException exception and shows the control I'm looking for...

2- Using a combobox locator with the property view parent argument.

ComboLocator locator = new ComboLocator(new ViewLocator(Messages.getString("Message.PropertyViewId")));

In this case, it returns that the widget is not found.

How should I do? What should be the parent of the locator?

Thanks

Hi,

I solve my problem using a SWTWidgetLocator. It seems that the editor of the property view used an CCombo control instead of a Combo control and the ComboLocator doesn't work correctly with the CCombo class.

A quick thought would be to try a CComboItemLocator, but from the sound of your last post you have your issue resolved. Is that right?

Yes. Thanks
