In the distant past I did try taking a dig at FEST. I believe one of the biggest requirements of FEST is that the application under test has to be spawned via FEST and you cannot use FEST to attach itself to an already running java applet/swing.

Have you figured out a way to get past this need ?

Thanks & Regards

Hi Krishnan,

Thanks for the reply.I followed the steps from this site https://code.google.com/p/festselenium/

I have one applet and one junit class,one html file,below is the code to invoke applet and to get text and compare.

selenium.open("demo_applet.html");
                selenium.windowMaximize();
                AppletFixture fixture = selenium.applet("demo_applet");
                ScrollBarFixture scrollbar = fixture.scrollBar();
                TextComponentFixture text = fixture.textBox();
                scrollbar.scrollUnitUp();
                assertEquals(text.text(), "1");     

But this is throwing error as com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: ERROR: Threw an exception: window.document.getElementById(...).getTestFixture is not a function

Thanks

I think that is based on Selenium RC.

In-browser applet testing can now be accomplished using festselenium in conjunction with Selenium RC. The purpose of this project is provide a java driver to commnuicate with Selenium then drive the fest-swing to do applet automation acceptance testing.

This project relies heavily on the GetEval provided by selenium.

Selenium RC is no longer being maintained.

Yes Krishnan,

I tried with Selenium RC only but was getting that  window.document.getElementById(...).getTestFixture is not a function and we need to get data from applet which is opened in browser upon clicking on a button.

Thanks

You could try searching FestWebDriver as an alternate option. I saw GitHub source and maven JAR links come up. That project/code may not be production ready, but worth a try, if festselenium isn't working for you.
