Re: [QF-Test] Antwort: Recording Tooltip Text

[Gregor Schmid <Gregor.Schmid@?.de>]

Hi Henrik,

thanks for your answer, which is the correct approach for _checking_
the value of the tooltip.

Ron, if you really need to _fetch_ the tooltip, try a Jython SUT
script with

# Use the QF-Test ID of the component for the tooltip is shown
com = rc.getComponent("some id")
tt = com.getToolTipText()
# Either set a QF-Test variable
rc.setLocal("tooltip", tt)
# Or log the tooltip right away with report=true
rc.logMessage("Tooltip for ...: %s" % tt, report=true)

Best regards,
    Greg
