Re: Unittesting the Qt UI

[Gerald Combs <gerald () wireshark org>]

To get up and running quickly you should be able to add something like the following to the case_unittests class in 
suite_unittests.py:


    def test_unit_qt_test(self, program, base_env):
        '''qt_test'''
        self.assertRun(program('name_of_test_program'), env=base_env)

You can then run just your test with `test/test.py -p /path/to/build/run test_unit_qt_test`.

If there a lot of different executables it might make sense to create a separate suite_qt.py module. More information 
can be found at https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChTestsDevelop.html
