Menu items which are disabled (grey) aren't found by SWT Bot. It raises a
WidgetNotFoundException.
This test would not work:
SWTBotMenu disabledMenu = bot.menu("Save");
assertTrue(disabledMenu.isDisabled());
You cannot distinguish currently whether the menu item is not there or whether
it is just disabled.
The reason for this is in the implementation MenuFinder.findMenusInternal(...),
line 163 - 167:
if (!menuItem.isEnabled()) {
if (log.isDebugEnabled())
log.debug(menuItem + " is not enabled, skipping.");
continue;
}
I would propose to simply remove these lines above, but then it would include a
lot of pseudo menu items, see log:
MenuItem {|} is not enabled, skipping.
What is that? Probably these menu items really can be skipped, but not the
other one which is visible, but just disabled (grey).
If they are menu item separators, there could be testing support for them,
because one might want to test that there is an separator between two specific
menu items. But this is just a minor issue of low importance. So in my opinion
they could be ignored in the beginning.
I discovered that this line is logged 10 times per 1 statement
"bot.menu("Save")":
MenuItem {&Save Ctrl+S} is not enabled, skipping.
This is 9times too often I would say. But that is of course "just" an
performance issue.
What do you think about that?
