why start to write gui test ?

GUI is part which mainly touch end-users.

which gui framework to use?

dont know much, I took dogtail and use it in python script


what to test?

Now I created the first simple test procedure with abrt on latest rhel6:

  • 1. abrt-gui
  • 2. produce simple crash
  • 3. report it by clicking next, next, next and filling something into "how to reproduce"
  • 4. see if there is /var/log/abrt.log with my generated "how to reproduce"

when to test?

each built / each week / once a year?

what was done?

just one preview test :)
