Re: [qftestJUI] Checking which frame is in the front and which one is behind

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

Hi Eton,

you cannot check that directly as Java doesn't give any information
about the z-ordering of windows.

However, qftestJUI tracks window activation events so it knows if an
SUT window is currently active and uses that information to favour the
active window over any other window that would otherwise be identical
for component recognition.

You can make use of that by manually creating a generic Window node
for class java.awt.Frame that has no other information, no name,
feature, class structure, geometry, nothing. Give it whatever ID you
like, e.g. genericFrame. That node will match every open frame, but
preferably the active frame.

Now, if you have two frames A and B with titles "Frame A" and "Frame
B", create two "Check text" nodes on the generic frame, one to check
for "Frame A", one to check for "Frame B". If either check succeeds,
that frame is above the other. If neither succeeds, either some other
Frame is above both or no SUT Window is currently active.

Best regards,
    Greg
