Gray Bar, not Green, in Eclipse JUnit View

[deisner]

I'm still getting my feet wet with Windows Tester Pro. I have a simple toy app, which you can find here: http://pastebin.com/6wmpZk83. It has two text fields. The user types text in one, and the other field gets updated with an all-caps version of that text.

I've created a JUnit test for the toy app using Windows Tester. The test runs to completion with no errors or failures, and it tells me "Runs: 1/1". But the green bar I normally see, indicating a successful JUnit test run, is instead a gray bar:



Here is the full test:

Code: Select all

package david.playground;

import com.windowtester.runtime.swing.locator.LabeledTextLocator;
import com.windowtester.runtime.swing.UITestCaseSwing;
import com.windowtester.runtime.IUIContext;
import com.windowtester.runtime.swing.locator.JButtonLocator;

public class WindowsTesterAppTest extends UITestCaseSwing {

    /**
     * Create an Instance
     */
    public WindowsTesterAppTest() {
        super(david.playground.WindowsTesterApp.class);
    }

    /**
     * Main test method.
     */
    public void testWindowsTesterApp() throws Exception {
        IUIContext ui = getUI();
        ui.click(new LabeledTextLocator("Enter Text: "));
        ui.enterText("Four Score");
        assertCapsified( ui);
        ui.click(new JButtonLocator("Exit"));
    }

    protected void assertCapsified( IUIContext ui) throws Exception {
        ui.assertThat(
                new LabeledTextLocator( "ALL YOUR TEXT: ")
                    .hasText( "FOUR SCORE"));
    }
}


This is with Eclipse Helios SR2, and Windows Tester 6.0.0.

Am I missing something? Thanks.

OK, how about this, then: Am I the only one having this problem?

Comment out the line

Code: Select all

ui.click(new JButtonLocator("Exit"));


and then run the test.

Thanks! That fixed it. If I can bother you further: why did it fix it? Should I never call anything that calls System.exit() in my tests?

Glad that solved the problem. The exit statement in the test closes the application, and then after the test is done, the test framework also tries to close the application. But it can't, since it is no longer there and this causes the grey bar.
