Properties tab widgets not able to identify by windows teste

[karthik.intels12]

Hello,

Windows tester not able to identify widgets which is there in properties view. Actually older versions of WT also not supporting Properties tab. But still i found some codes which was there in incubation of WT svn and i was using those codes to locate the basic widgets like tab, and table in properties view.

But now the latest version of WT is not supporting that workaround which was supported by older versions.

Please Help me out in this because in our tool almost most of the things done through properties view which can't be tested now.

What is the workaround that you are using? Please post a sample/snippet of the code.

Hello keertip,

I was using the below code to select the tab in properties view.

this.ui.click(new PropertyTabItemLocator("property Tab1"));


Some code snippets from the class PropertyTabItemLocator .


public PropertyTabItemLocator(final String tabLabel) {
super(Widget.class);
this.tabLabel = tabLabel;
}

PropertyTabItemLocator is actually extends the class SWTWidgetLocator.

This part of code was able to identify Tabs in properties tab. But now it could not. I didn't understand y is it so. Please follow Up and Thanks in advance.

It looks like you are using a custom locator to click on the property tab. Does the PropertyTabItemLocator define a matcher? The matcher story has changed a bit from WindowTester 4.0 to WindowTester 5.0 and beyond. This might be what is causing the problem. It is difficult to tell without looking at all the code. If you have a current support contract, please contact us via the customer-only e-mail address that was sent to you, and we will be glad to help.
