Hi All, Just found the root cause of jenkins build hanging issue with swtbot. Whenever the test executes the step where it gets a new popup window the entire testcase hangs at that instant. For eg. We have an option as delete in the eclipse plugin and when clicked it opens a confirmation window asking for "Confirm delete" but now that window doesn't seem to show up at all cause it hangs when the option delete is selected. The same happens with all the confirmation, error etc.. dialog boxes..
Any idea why this is happening? Can someone please help to figure out this root cause now? If it's something to do with metacity then kindly provide some other windows manager example for the same. Thanks & Regards, Melwyn Jensen. On Wed, Dec 18, 2013 at 10:52 PM, melwyn jensen <melwynjen...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi Mickael, > > Thanks for the reply again.
