sometimes when i can't find a widget, i activate the shell that i know will
have that widget, for example, if you're looking for buttons on a wizard
page, its helpful to just activate the shell before you say bot.button(...)
as for waits...
there are methods like bot.wainuntil(...) that will help you. I found a
problem with these waits, i.e. they consume exceptions generated from the
test() methods and ulitmately only fail with a timeout exception. Therefore
if any code you put in the test condition throws an exception, you won't see
it but will only see a timeout exception hence I wrote my own waits. I don't
know if its fixed in the latest release. if not, i could file a patch. But m
not using the latest trunk right now.
