About LDTP:
Linux Desktop Testing Project is aimed at producing high quality test
automation framework. It uses the "Accessibility" libraries to poke through the
application's user interface. Thanks to Sun and Accessibility team.
Whats new in this release:
* Testing Applications in localized languages using LDTP ('Nagappan' &
'Premkumar')
The wait is over! Languages are no barriers for testing applications any
more! We are proud to announce the localization support available with this
release of LDTP which no other F/OSS test automation tool has ever provided
till date. This version of LDTP lets you test applications in localized
languages. The best part being not necessary to rewrite scripts for testing
applications running in localized languages. Use existing script, follow the
simple steps provided in the README file (Localization support section) and you
have LDTP testing your application!! The current version of LDTP does not
include testing of rendering of localized strings. Thanks to Karunakar ([EMAIL
PROTECTED]) for helping us complete this work successfully.
* New component functions:
+ 'sortcolumnindex' and 'sortcolumn' for table/tree-table objects.
('Shaheed')
+ 'getwindowlist' and 'getcomponentlist' ('Premkumar')
+ 'bindtext', 'getobjectinfo' and 'getobjectproperties' ('Nagappan')
* Major Bug Fixes:
+ Proper error messages have been updated for easy debugging ('Nagappan')
+ 'selectrow' to select row based on number of matchings ('Shaheed')
+ 'doesrowexist' now performs an exact match ('Shaheed')
+ Crasher bug in menu.c relating to menu items has been fixed ('Nagappan')
+ Crasher bug in 'selectcalendardate' API has been fixed ('Premkumar')
* Automation scripts:
+ Evolution 2.5.1 automation scripts for the following scenarios have been
updated. Thanks to Patrick ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), Haip ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), Nags
([EMAIL PROTECTED]), Premkumar ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and Shaheed ([EMAIL
PROTECTED]) for their wonderful contribution.
