Breakout session Moderator: Sebastien Barre

Introduction: Automatic KWWidgets and Slicer GUI Testing

Agenda:

• How to create Squish test suites from Squish IDE.
• How to add validation points in Squish tests.
• How to add Squish tests using CMake macros, so that they can be run nightly from ctest.
• Squish current known issues with some KWWidgets.
  • vtkKWComboBox, vtkKWMenuButton
  • Recording a lot of MouseMove events with coordinates, which may not always be reliable.
  • Asynchronous handling of mouse events, which is difficult to control of the procedure-flow, so in some cases, manual insert of "wait-some-time" is needed in the script
  • RenderWindow mouse move events are recorded and played back TOO MUCH.

• Discussions: tests validation methods.
