Method Detail

select

public void select()
Programmaticly selects the current Menu.


invoke

public java.lang.Object invoke(java.lang.String method,                                java.lang.String methodSignature,                                java.lang.Object[] args)
Invokes a method on the object in the software under test. Note that this can directly modify the object in the software under test. You should therefore be extremely careful when you do this. Whenever possible, avoid using invoke, which allows you to modify the software under test in ways that a typical user cannot. If you use this method, be sure to discuss its use with the developers of the software you are testing.

If the returned object is not a value class, invoke registers the object and returns a reference to the object in the software under test. Registered object references are released by calling one of the unregister methods.

The methodSignature uses JNI syntax to describe the parameter types and optionally the return value types for the method. The general syntax has the parameter types in parentheses, followed by the return type: (parameterTypes)returnType. Note that the returnType is not a required part of the signature - it can be omitted. There are specific encodings for the primitive types, and then a general encoding for class types.

CodeType
Zboolean
Bbyte
Cchar
Sshort
Iint
Jlong
Ffloat
Ddouble
Vvoid
Lfully-qualified-class; For example: Ljava.lang.String;

In addition, arrays are specified by combining the brace character '[' with another type. For example, [I is an array of integers, [[I is an array of arrays of integers and [Ljava.lang.Object; is an array of Objects. Another example:

void myMethod(long n, String s, int[] arr)

has the following signature:

(JLjava.lang.String;[I)V

Overrides:
invoke in class ClientTestObject
Parameters:
method - the name of the method to be called
methodSignature - the signature of the method to be called (using standard JNI syntax)
args - the arguments to be passed to the method
Since:
RFT1.0

invoke

public java.lang.Object invoke(java.lang.String method)
Invokes a method with no arguments on the object in the software under test. Note that this can directly modify the object in the software under test. You should therefore be extremely careful when you do this. Whenever possible, you should avoid using invoke, which allows you to modify the software under test in ways that a typical user cannot. If you use this method, be sure to discuss its use with the developers of the software you are testing.

If the returned object is not a value class, invoke registers the object and returns a reference to the object in the software under test. Registered object references are released by calling one of the unregister methods.

Overrides:
invoke in class TestObject
Parameters:
method - the name of the method to be called
methodSignature - the signature of the method to be called (using standard JNI syntax)
