New release of GUITester with Regular Expressions

Following my visit to Nxtgen I have added regular expression functionality to GUITester as promised. The ClickTextTest attribute now has an optional extra boolean flag, this allows you to say if the text to match is a fixed string or a regular expression. The usage to check a textbox contains an email...

SharpRobo - another way to test GUIs

SharpRobo is another interesting way to test your win forms application, it uses recorder (test classes) to allow user operations to be replayed. The potential issue for me is that you need to derive your forms and controls from SharpRobo base classes, it remains to be seen how much this is a limitation...

Loading test data files in Microsoft Test Projects without fixed paths

I sorted a problem today that has been going on a while, how to load test data in unit tests without resorting to fixed paths. We had an class library assembly and an associated test project in Visual Studio 2005 Team Developer Edition. The problem was the methods we needed to test (via a unit test)...

That threading issue seen at DDD3 in the session demo

At DDD3 when I was demo'ing GUITester I said there was a problem with the tests that used multi-threading were failing. This used to work with .Net 1.1 but not with 2.0. Due to the short notice of doing the session I did not have time to find the answer before the talk. However I have found it now. As...

GUITest at DDD3

Well Developer Developer Developer Day 3 was interesting, a few months ago I had put in a proposal to speak at the event about GUITester, but it was not voted for, so I didn’t continue to work on the session. So I arrived on Saturday expecting a relaxing day of sitting in the audience, and watching Robert...

Thoughts on automatically generating Test Methods in a Team Developer Edition Test Project

With my current implementation of the GUITesting framework integrated with Test Projects within VS.Net, I end up with all the GUITests in a single [TestMethod]. This is a far from perfect solution, if nothing else it is hard to debug, you only see the first failing test. So I thought what I need to do...

Updating GUITester to build using VS.Net 2005 and make use of Test Projects

I have rebuilt the GUITesting framework using VS.Net 2005. No changes really, the built in converter from VS.Net 2003 to 2005 did the job with no errors. At this time I have not done any work to exploit the new features of .NET 2.0. However, what I have had a look at is integrating the new testing features...

VB.Net samples - Source Release 1.1

I was asked via this blog if the GUITester tool can be used with VB.NET. Well because of the architecture of .NET in theory it can be used with any .NET language, as long as the language designers implemented attributes. The only change that is required is to make sure that the attributes are declared...
