Hi There,
SWTBot.java has a waiUntil(Icondition, int, long) method which consumes
exceptions.
the problem with this...consider this scenario:
bot.waitUntil(new DefaultCondition(){
getFailureMessage(){
return somemessage
}
test(){
data1 = mymethodtogetdata();
data2 = mymethodtogetdata();
return data1.equals(data2);
}
});
mymethodtogetdata() is defined to throw myException.
mymethodtogetdata() throws myException{
...}
you can argue that data1 and data2 should be retrieved before the test
condition outside of bot.waitUntil() which is fine.
but the whole concept of waituntil is that it checks for the condition,
sleeps for an interval and checks again till timeout. so to speak mymethod
can return a different data in the meanwhile which is why it is inside the
test.
now, if mymethod throws the myException, m screwed cos the waitUntil method
will only return a timoutException.
thoughts?
