VCLAuto [Planning]
Introduction
VCLAuto is a Java library for OpenOffice UI/functional testing like VCL TestTool. VCLAuto can be used with JUnit. The project is under developing and will be released in Apache OpenOffice 4.0.
There are a lot of testing code in the OO project, e.g. qadevooo, smoketestoo_native. Why do we need the library? The code in qadevooo & smoketestoo_native uses UNO API to perform testing. It can't fully simulate a user behavior and check if testing GUI is correct. For example, check if user can draw a shape by dragging, check if OO automatically capitalize the first letter after typing a word, check if a button's checked when user change the selection, etc.
Actually VCLAuto is a client, which connects to the automation server (automation module) in OpenOffice with socket. With the "-enableautomation" argument, OpenOffice will start the server with listening on the port 12479 be default.
Code
Write UI testing case like the following:
public class UITest { @Before public void setUp() throws Exception() { initApp(); } @Test public void test() throws Exception() { // Create a new text document via main menu startcenter.menuItem("File->New->Text Document").select(); typeKeys("Hello OpenOffice"); writer.menuItem("Edit->Select All").select(); // Copy the text typeKeys("<$copy>"); assert("Text is inputted successfully.", "Hello OpenOffice", App.getClipboard()); } @After public void tearDown() throws Exception() { } }
Use Apache Ant to Run Testing and Generate Report
