What Somesh has mentioned is useful for finding controls 'inside' the composite. See the mailBox() at http://swtbot.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/swtbot/trunk/examples/rcp/org.rcpmail.test/src/org/rcpmail/MessageCreateTest.java . It essentially finds a tree inside the "Mailboxes" view.
To answer the rest of your question, if it's possible to get to the toolbar and menubars of a view. This is not provided yet, and I've seen that you've filed bugs for that, thanks! I think that should be possible, if I can programatically get a handle to these widgets.
