Well, sarcastic or not, it is a good question. Here's my latest thinking: There are several pieces to mustella. 1) A SWC of test steps that are tags in MXML used to define the script. 2) A Java engine that runs tests based on command line input 3) An http server that captures output from the tests 4) A ton of test scripts The checkintests in the full Adobe SDK only include #1 and a few tests. The don't use any bitmap compares because you need #3 to save away the baseline you are going to compare against. My current thinking is that I need to legally clear and donate all four in one big chunk so that: A) I only have to bug legal once B) I only have to bug the execs who have to sign off on this stuff once C) It is clear what tests have been written so folks don't go duplicating work D) It is easier to run a subset of tests via the command line I'm open to arguments that say I should try to get #1 done sooner at the expense of delaying #2, #3 and #4.
Just out of curiosity: It would be no problem to run a test in adl an capture the output there using a native extension, would it? I am not sure how the tests are built but making a screenshot is of a application is not "high science" and it could be easier to setup
a browser/server/etc stuff. yours Martin.
