Robot Framework with JavaFX and OSGi

[Kim Schiller]

Hi

I have an application built with JavaFX and packaged in multiple OSGi-modules, that I want to test using Robot Framework.

My first hope was, that using JavaFXLibrary from eficode (https://github.com/eficode/JavaFXLibrary) would work,

but since the application is not launched as a normal JavaFX application, then the JavaFXLibrary cannot start it.

I did try to launch the application using the "Start Process" keyword from the Process-library,

and while that does start the application, the JavaFXLibrary cannot access it, likely since it is in a separate process.

Similarly, the Scene View JavaFX tool, cannot inspect the application.

Any ideas how to move forward with testing this application?

Hi,

There is nowadays support for java agent way of attaching the library to target application. Have you tried that [1]?
