Do you know ldtp (Linux Desktop (GUI Application) Testing Project) ? After dogtail, let’s try this testing tool with Pardus Gnome. Recording scripts work. But playing the recorded scripts does not work from start completely (same prob also with dogtail). E.g. one needs to add more lines at begin. And for a person not having yet worked with the test tool it would be nice if the first try does not involve to look in the manuals.
What does one expect, nothing comes for free in life - especially since the test tools are not originally supported for Pardus. But support from #ldtp (and as has been previously in #dogtail) left a very positive impression.
More gui test tools which use at-spi you can find here. Here is a table which compares dogtail and ldtp. Todo: try out strongwind. In any case in your exploration install also accerciser.
- ldtp 1.4.0
- Pardus 2008.2 Canis aureus
- Gnome 2.22.3
P.S. after showing this post in #ldtp to Nagappan Alagappan he already asked that I send him the script for further analysis. Very positive impression. Yesterday also: when I came with this unsupported Linux distro, he asked for a virtual image to try himself, debugged with me, so that we got ldtpeditor running. Keep up the good work !
