Hi I am investigating technologies for testing the GUI component of Wireshark. I have in mind 2 scenarios 1) feature testing In this scenario I'd like to launch qt ui and have a software that acts like a user, by opening menus and clicking on buttons. The goal of it is to check that some features are working as expected. 2) regression testing In this scenario the test is run in a CI environment. The ui is launched against some capture files with different options and we could either: (1) verify it doesn't crash, (2) check resulting output wherever possible. Remember that usually CI machines aren't regular machines but they are headless with no graphics. Travis docs explain how to do headless testing in a web scenario https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/gui-and-headless-browsers/ Is anyone aware of software/techniques useful in those scenarios? Any shareable experience would be useful as well. Consider that at the moment Wireshark CIs are based on travis, gitlab-ci, appveyor. Thanks. Dario. -- Naima is online.
