Might Jelly be useful for automating testing of SWT/JFace GUIs? Why I ask: I've written a fair number of wizards for an Eclipse plugin that generates Struts artifacts. Unfortunately I unit-test manually, so as my functionality grows, so does the time required to regress :-( (Please no preaching about test-first development: I see the light, and seek only to tread the path :-)
I'd like to try using something like Abbot http://abbot.sourceforge.net/ but it relies on java.awt.Robot, and AFAIK there is no SWT analog. JellySWT also looks interesting, but I suspect it solves a problem different than mine. It seems to me that Jelly is for interface RAD (RID ?-), and that JellyUnit and JellyTestSuite are designed to allow one to easily build test-harness GUIs. By contrast, what I want to do is automate testing for _existing_ GUIs. This view seems confirmed by http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?[EMAIL PROTECTED]&msgNo=1348 but not clearly. So I ask: Can Jelly do what I want? If so, please lemme know, and please point toward example(s) if known.
