ui.contextClick problem

[anaderol]

Hello.
I have a problem with the contextClick() command.
If record a test using WindowTester and then I playback that test sometimes it works like it should and sometimes I get the following message:

SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 1
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 2
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 3
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 4
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 5
................................................
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 400
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 401
Failed to select menu item
menu item path: New/File
exception: com.windowtester.runtime.swt.internal.widgets.SWTUIException: Exception occurred on the SWT UI Thread
attempt 1 of 3

Can someone help me, please?
Thank you.

What type of application are you running - SWT, Eclipse or RCP? Are you running your tests as a JUnit or JUnit plugin test?

[anaderol]

The application is RCP and I'm running my test as a JUnit plugin test.

Could you post a screen shot at the time of failure and the test code - at least where is fails and before/after. That would be helpful.

Hi. Sorry for my delay.

My test is:
public class DeleteFunctionTest extends UITestCaseSWT
{
protected void setUp() throws Exception
{
super.setUp();
IUIContext ui = getUI();
ui.ensureThat(new WorkbenchLocator().hasFocus());
ui.ensureThat(ViewLocator.forName("Welcome").isClosed());
}

public void testDeleteFunction throws Exception
{
IUIContext ui = getUI();
ui.click(2, new TreeItemLocator("Hello World C Project Function", new ViewLocator(
"org.eclipse.ui.navigator.ProjectExplorer")));
ui.click(2, new TreeItemLocator("Hello World C Project Function/src", new ViewLocator(
"org.eclipse.ui.navigator.ProjectExplorer")));
ui.click(2, new TreeItemLocator("Hello World C Project Function/src/Hello World22.c",
new ViewLocator("org.eclipse.ui.navigator.ProjectExplorer")));
ui.click(new TreeItemLocator("int main(void) ", new ViewLocator(
"org.eclipse.ui.views.ContentOutline")));
ui.contextClick(new TreeItemLocator("int main(void) ", new ViewLocator(
"org.eclipse.ui.views.ContentOutline")), "Create contraction");
}
}

When it gets to line ui.contextClick(new TreeItemLocator("int main(void) ", new ViewLocator(
"org.eclipse.ui.views.ContentOutline")), "Create contraction"); the mouse remains blocked on the element clicked and this message is displayed in eclipse console:

SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 1
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 2
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 3
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 4
SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 5

SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 400

We do not see this problem at our end. The test code is a bit different since this is java project and not c, but we are able to do context click in the outline view.

Code: Select all

      ui.click(2, new TreeItemLocator("HelloWorld", new ViewLocator(
           "org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer")));
      ui.click(2, new TreeItemLocator("HelloWorld/src", new ViewLocator(
           "org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer")));
      ui.click(2, new TreeItemLocator("HelloWorld/src/(default package)/HelloWorld.java",
            new ViewLocator("org.eclipse.jdt.ui.PackageExplorer")));
      ui.click(new TreeItemLocator("HelloWorld/main(String[]) : void",
            new ViewLocator("org.eclipse.ui.views.ContentOutline")));
      ui.contextClick(new TreeItemLocator("HelloWorld/main(String[]) : void",
            new ViewLocator("org.eclipse.ui.views.ContentOutline")),
            "Open Type Hierarchy");


Could you try a different menu item in the context click and see if that works?

[anaderol]

I tried, but I get the same message.
If I click outside the window of the application when this message appears "SWTShowMenuOperation waiting for idle 1...." and then return to it, and press SHIFT + F10 on that item to display the context menu, sometimes the test passes.The problem is that the context menu does not appears but window tester tries to click on it.
I forget to say that context menu worked before adding GEF package.

[keertip]

"I forget to say that context menu worked before adding GEF package."

Could you elaborate on this? Does your application use GEF?

[anaderol]

Yes. For example when I click on an Palette Item window tester generates the following class :

Code: Select all

private static class FlowPageLocator extends FigureClassLocator
   {
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

      public FlowPageLocator()
      {
         super("org.eclipse.draw2d.text.FlowPage");
      }
   }

and then calls it like this:

Code: Select all

ui.click(new LRLocator(1, new FlowPageLocator()));

There is a list with more than one Palette Items and I clicked the first one in this example.
Sometimes the class is not generated but it is called in the test.
I tried to use com.windowtester.runtime.gef.locator Class PaletteItemLocator, but I got WIDGET NOT FOUND exception.

Back to the context click problem, was the context click in outline view working before you added gef support?

[anaderol]

Yes.

[keertip]

Could you recreate this problem by removing the gef dependency and then adding it? Also, do post these steps so that we can recreate it at our end.

[anaderol]

Hi.
Apparently was an installation problem. Now it is working like it should, even after GEF installation.
Thank you very much.

[keertip]

Great! Glad that the issue is solved!
