Subject: Re: Test driving WxRuby2 apps - msg#00000

Apologies, I think the gem attachment may have been stripped from my original mail, so I've uploaded it to rubyforge under a new 'wxextra's project:

(direct link: http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/19183/nobbie-wx-preview-0.0.1.gem)

============================================================

Before I forget, thanks for the new 0.0.39 and wx_sugar releases, excellent work guys - its great to see the back of GC.disable ;)

I've been a bit tied up recently, so apologies that this topic has gone quiet ... but I just wanted to let you know that this isn't dead, in fact I've packaged up what I have so far into the attached gem.

Please note:
- wxruby2-preview 0.0.39 and wx_sugar 0.1.14 are required
- this is very much a preview, it basically works - except for the problems listed in 'KNOWN ISSUES'.
- component support is a bit thin right now, I've only added support for what I've needed to test an application that I'm currently building
- it works on Windows and OS X only, as I've no means to test on other platforms.
- its based on an generic GUI driving api called 'Nobbie', which is a very silly name, I won't bore you with the history of how it came about

For usage info, please look at the README page of the gems rdoc ... but here is a quick example:

  require 'rubygems'
  require_gem 'nobbie-wx-preview'
 
  require 'your_application'
 
  #important - tell nobbie which application you want to test
  APPLICATION_UNDER_TEST = YourApp.new
 
  class YourAppTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
 
    def test_something_really_important
      assert !enabled?(:save)
      type 'fred', :first_name
      choosable(:male).choose
      selection(:title).choose 'Mr'
      assert enabled?(:save)
      click :save
    end
 
  end

For more examples look at the 'test' directory under the gem install.  Note that if you run all_tests.rb, some of the tests will currently fail (depending on platform), these tests expose some of the problems highlighted in 'KNOWN ISSUES'.
