Java GUI Testing

I'm not sure where to post this, so here goes...
I have a Java Swing application, and I am looking to do GUI testing on it. I'm looking for a piece of free software similar in functionality to QuickTest Professional that will let me record and playback actions I perform on the application. I want the testing application to be able to launch the Java application, perform button clicks, and interact with the application like a human does. So if anyone could reccommend a good free tool that does this, it would be greatly appreciated.

I do not know of a free tool, but you can use the Robot class in Java to create what you need.

Accessibility and Java GUI testing

Hi,
Can java accessibility be used for developing java GUI testing tool for applet embedded in IE? If not is there any other way we can test Java Appet GUI?

SAP Java Gui in Solaris 10 x86.

Who run the Java Gui in Solaris 10 x86?
After I installed Java Gui in Solaris 10 x86 and run guilogon, when I connect the server I created, I got the error message:
Attempt to load shared library /opt/SAPClients/SAPGui7.00/binlibJPlatin.so failed.
The library file exists, so either the program
don't has the privileges to access the library
or the library is not loadable by the shared object loader
Technical information:
Error location: GuiJniLoader.loadPlatinLibrary()
Error message: /opt/SAPClients/SAPGUI7.00/bin/libJPlation.so:ld.so.1:java:fatal:/opt/SAPClients/SAPGUI7.00/bin/libJPlatin.so:wrong ELF data format:ELFDATA2MSB
After I confirm the dialog, another error message appears:
JniAgiLibAdaptor.<init>: Cannot load JNI library.
I checked the supported OS, it doesn't contains Solaris 10 X86, but I think Solaris 10 was open source, just like linux, why doesn't SAP Java Gui support Solaris 10 X86? And now , how can I solve this problem?

What you see is what happens when the Java runtime running on Solaris 10 x86 tries to load a library which is compiled for SPARC.
Because of the native parts in SAP GUI for Java, compilations and installers are required for each OS - HW combination.
The supported platforms can be seen in SAP note 954572. For Solaris only SPARC is currently supported.
Because of the effort needed for compiling, testing, support etc. it is required to focus on OS - HW combinations widely used on desktop machines and Solaris 10 on x86 currently does not seem to be one of those.

Searching for a GUI testing tool

Hi all,
I would like to create automated GUI tests for my Flex Air application which uses the 4.12 Apache Flex SDK. Unfortunately the most appealing testing tool is Flex Monkey which is not supported anymore by Gorilla Logic. Is there a way to make it work with the latest Flex SDK or do you know a tool that can be used for the same purpose and is able to leverage the latest Apache Flex SDK's automation library?

See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=114159.

New Features for Java GUI

Hello everyone!
Can anybody tell about new features in SAP GUI for Java. I think It's emasculate now. It doesn't contain New ABAP editor, Network graphic, normal Screen Painter... I really enjoy adding themes and other stuff, but when these functionality will be added?
Thanks.

Hi,
I use Java GUI from version 6.40, so i didn't know new ABAP editor for years. Once somebody shows me its features ...and I found that it is really good editor compared with previous Notepad-like frontend editor. But I have to say that customized version od Gvim used as external editor is in 90% better then new ABAP editor (the only problem is that double click on object doesn't work, but some workarounds are known for double-click on locally defined objects).
Graphical screen painter is generally good tool, but once I cannot find any feature (sorry, I forgot which one, it happens about 6 years ago). I ask a SAP guru sitting near me. He comes, switch graphical screen painter off and click to a box in non-graphical version of screen painter. Then he told me that some features are not accessible in graphical screen painter. It was last time I used graphical version of screen painter.
Themes? Works .... at least for me (Linux 32 bit and now Linux 64 bit too).
So I think that Java GUI is usable (at least on Linux/Mac, I am not sure how in works under Windows) but you cannot stick on all features (and maybe you can find better working variants of it). E. g. I have no problem with new ABAP editor, it would be much better for me, if I can open external editor clicking to "Change" button in SE38 directly instead of click plus selecting external editor from menu.

Pavel

JAVA GUI window content does not fill out when window is enlarged (Win,Mac)

I've been using the SAP JAVA GUI on a Windows XP workstation as well as a couple of MacBooks running OS X over the last year and a half or so, running versions from 7.10 r 7(maybe earlier) thru 7.10 r 10 (installed today.) The GUI has performed generally well on these platforms, but has one major irritation.
When I open certain pop-up windows, such as the SPAD [List of Output Requests > Status Description |http://img171.imageshack.us/i/screenshot20091006at241.png/|screenshot], it usually does not open a large enough window to display all the data - one must scroll horizontally and/or vertically to see the entire window content. The real aggravation is that if [one enlarges the window|http://img101.imageshack.us/i/screenshot20091006at242.png/|screenshot] so as to see more data, the resizing is ignored. The contents of the window are still displayed within the original window boundaries instead of filling out the expanded window.   It is not possible to get the entire window contents displayed, it is still necessary to scroll around.
What am I missing here?   How can I get window resizing to work correctly?   (Or is there a way to make such windows at least open up at a larger initial size??)
I only found one other thread in this forum, Sap gui screen size in ubuntu., which seemed to be addressing the same problem, but the suggestion was to apply the latest patch to the GUI and get JAVA 1.6.   One would think that since that post in 2008, any patches would have made it into the latest revisions. I'm already running Java 1.6.

I've also updated my XP system to 7.10 rev 11 and both continue to display the same failure to resize corrrectly.
Here's a [video capture of this behavior|http://img163.yfrog.com/i/sapresizebug.mp4/].
Given that installs on two separate operating systems have consistently misbehaved like this, I have a hard time believing it is something we are doing. (But not that hard...) I find it hard to believe that is the way these screens present on most SAP sites...
Any comments or suggestions would be welcome!

Cannot connect a Java GUI client to an EJB

I am having problems trying to make a Java GUI client connect to an EJB. I am using JRun4.
At first, I tried making the Java GUI client a part of the enterprise application that I am building (of which the EJB is a part of). I included the client as a Java module in the application.xml of the enterprise application.
However, when I try to start the server, containing this application, I get an error saying:
Application authentication required. Incorrect method call.
Now when I try to execute the application from the console, it works fine except when it comes to the part when it has to connect to the EJB. At this point I get an java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException. Here's the stack trace:

Since the bean is local, I am using a local reference to the bean in the lookup in the code of the client:
Object o = context.lookup("local/BeanTest")
I tried to use:
Object o = context.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/BeanTest")
and added an ejb-local-ref in the application-client.xml file of the client. But when I try executing the client in this case, I get an error saying:
No such binding: ejb
I wish someone can help me out with this. My main aim is to get the app client talk to the EJB. Thanks a lot in advance.

I am not sure of a tool to view the JNDI tree. I have one in Weblogic console. But you can check the JNDI names with a small sample code.
import java.util.*;
import javax.naming.*;
import javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject;
public class TestEnvironment {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Context context   = null;
        Object object     = null;
        // Hashtable for environment properties.
        Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
        env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
        env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://localhost:7001");
        try {
            context   = new InitialContext(env);
            NamingEnumeration enum = context.listBindings("");
            while (enum.hasMore()) {
                Binding binding = (Binding) enum.next();
                System.out.println("Name: " + binding.getName());
                System.out.println("Type: " + binding.getClassName());
                System.out.println("Value: " + binding.getObject());
        } catch (Exception exception) {
            exception.printStackTrace();
}Hope this helps.

Java -jar Test.jar option is not identifing the CLASSPATH on UNIX BOX

Hi All,
java -jar Test.jar
I am trying to execute Test.jar file using -jar option. I am able to excute the Test.jar file but it is not identifing the CLASSPATH set for other JAR files which is used in part of Test.jar. Saying java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: for the class which are set in CLASSPATH.
The same is able to identify the CLASSPATH if i excute the Test.class file directly with out -jar option like
java Test. In this case everything is working fine.
Can any one tell me why it is not identifying the classpath if i use or execute with java -jar Test.jar option.
Thanks,
sha

When you use the -jar option, the only classpath that is used is the Class-Path in the manifest file of the jar. If there is no Class-Path, then only the jar is searched for classes. If there is a Class-Path, the paths must be relative to the jar file.

Integrating Another Program Into A Java GUI

HI
I have 3 classes here. One is a Java GUI, the other two are involed in
stripping and processing of information off a webpage.
Of these latter two classes, one contains a main method which connects
to a webpage and reads the info off it, it calls the other class which
parses this information and holds the variables I need to create
buttons for the main gui!
Is it possible at all to integrate, the class that reads the webpage,
into, the Java GUI class.I need to do this to access the variables
that the parsing class is holding, as previously I have had to create
an instance of this class in the webpage reader class, but this was no
good to me as the GUI could not access this information, i.e can I
create an instance of this stripper at the begining of main in the GUI
class so as I can use the results for this for producing my buttons?
I've tried to do this but I am getting unresolved symbol errors. I was
wondering should I use global variables to hold the needed info also ?
Any help at all greatly appreciated,
Thanks
Gerry

I did what you're describing. Sounded simple enough. You put the same logic in main() into the applets init() and you can run as app or applet. Worked well in my IDE. Then the troubles start.
Visit
http://www.martinrinehart.com
and read the Article, Launching Applets. That will get you started on launching a Swing application. (Try my Sample, DawnPainter, to give you an idea about how nice this can be when it works.) I promise but don't deliver (yet) an article on the javascript library I wrote that solves all the problems. For non-commercial use you can get your own copy:

" Cannot read list of frontend printers " - Message no. PO781
What do i need to do to take a print out from SAP on my Mac.
Thanks

How can I run C programs under a Java GUI?

Hi
I'm looking for some info on how to run a command line program written in another language behind a Java GUI, any advice greatly appreciated, particularly in how to transfer data between the two.
Thanks

Runtime.getRuntime().exec(...)
Transfering info is more complicated. Maybe write and read status from disk?

Printing local with JAVA Gui 7.10 on a MAC

Hi,
I installed the JAVA GUI 7.10 on my MacBook Pro and it all works fine. The only problem I have is local printing. Since I do not have SAPLPD anymore, I am not able to use local printing. Is there another possibility to do local printing with a Mac?
Thanks Maarten

Maarten,
Yes.
The following text is from Chapter 2. "Release Notes" / Section 2. "Missing Features" of the JavaGui HTML documentation:
Front-End Printing Using SAPLPD (access method 'F') is only supported on Win32 platforms. For newer back-end versions, a new printing architecture for all platforms supported by SAP GUI for Java (access method 'G') is available, see SAP Note 821519 for details.
