Swinger videoHi guys,
I've just posted a small 30 sec video demoing Swinger, a JRuby-Cucumber step definition library for testing Java/Swing applications. Here's the link: Anyone has the same need for testing Swing apps? Regards,

Re: Swinger videoThanks for the tweet and reply Charlie, I appreciate it. Let's see if other people get excited about it.
Cheers.

Re: Swinger videoThis is great. It's nice to hear that there are others interested in automated Swing testing.
At Atomic Object, we have been creating automated tests using a combination of FEST (http://code.google.com/p/fest) and Ruby helper methods wrapping functions specific to our application. For example, the Ruby 'play' method wraps the FEST operations needed to start our simulator (http://spin.atomicobject.com/2009/01/30/ruby-for-desktop-applications-yes-we-can). Likewise, 'reset' presses the appropriate buttons to reset the simulator.
We haven't published anything since our helpers are so tuned specific to our applications. Swinger looks like a great start to a highly reusable Swing testing harness.
Jemmy looks like an interesting library. Do you have any experience with FEST? It looks like Jemmy tries to be just a robot, whereas FEST provides finders along with a robot. Does this sound about right? On Wed, Jun 10, 2009 at 12:15 AM, Demetrius Nunes <demetriusnunes@...> wrote: Hi guys, |

Re: Swinger videoThat looks spiffy. I know Logan Barnett started in on Cucumber steps for stuff we were doing with Monkeybars using just reflection to get at the components but using Jemmy is probably a better way of doing this.

I have to say that when I first saw this mail, I thought for sure it was spam. =) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email |

Re: Swinger videoLOL.
I often feel like I'm way out of touch.. Swinger, drools, jemmy, monkeybars, cucumber, webrat... It seems like every day there are a ton of new gems... Which is AWESOME.. Although it's hard to keep up :P (and fulfill the duties of my day job, and family life :P) Jay On Wed, Jun 10, 2009 at 2:03 PM, Michael Campbell<michael.campbell@...> wrote: > Demetrius Nunes wrote: >> >> Hi guys, >> >> I've just posted a small 30 sec video demoing Swinger, a JRuby-Cucumber >> step definition library for testing Java/Swing applications.

Re: Swinger videoI'm definitely going to hook this into Monkeybars. Thanks!

As a result I would not get any final report. Some hackery got me around that, but a better solution would have the app being tested isolated from the process doing the testing.

Never seen FEST before. Looks good as well. Don't know how would it compare to Jemmy. About Jemmy: it's not only a robot. It implements several "finder" strategies for locating each widget within the app and let's you implement your own as well. For instance, in Swinger, I've implemented a findByTooltip strategy for buttons, using JRuby. Jemmy is used by the Netbeans team to test Netbeans itself, so it's pretty complete. Cheers!

Re: Swinger videoI really like Monkeybars (although I prefer to use MVP instead of MVC). Let me know if you need any help!

Re: Swinger videoHehe, it was meant to be kinda of funny... Not sure if it was a good idea for search engines and spam filters though.
