Hi Semyon,
On Mac OS X and Windows:
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ALT_GRAPH) is possible but VK_ALT_GRAPH is
not mapped in native platform code.
To automate the test case we need to map java key VK_ALT_GRAPH to OS X
equivalent kVK_RightOption (right option key)
in the native OS X code and right Alt key on Windows.
On Linux(Ubuntu):
Alt graph is configurable on Linux. By default the Alt graph key is
undefined in System Settings and has to be defined by the user.
Therefore the test case can’t be automated since it is not possible to automate
the test case on Linux. If we still want to automate the test case then we have
to write separate test cases for Linux (manual) and for Mac and Windows
(automated).
Please provide your suggestion.
Regards,
Manajit
