optional: I would recommend to add another **Util.runAndWait** block here to 
close the menu. and remove the calls `robotMenu(false, false, false);`


// hide menu
Util.runAndWait(() -> {
    Robot robot = new Robot();
    robot.keyType(KeyCode.ESCAPE);
});


I had this comment earlier batch, it wasn't posted. not sure why.

line 148:

With the other variable, even the variable `menu` could move to outer class. 
and we can remove the variable `testApp`
