The macOS Convenience API is only available forthe Squish for macOS editions.

Terminology

The Squish documentation uses the term widgetwhen referring to GUI objects. macOS developers may be morefamiliar with the term view for this concept.

  1. Squish Coco can target applications running on Linux, Windows, Mac OS X and other platforms. Squish Coco is available for the following programming languages: C; C; C#; Tcl; Squish Coco can be used at every stage of testing and with every testing method (unit tests, automated tests, manual tests, etc.).

Mac Convenience Function Parameters

Some of the macOS convenience functions can take amodifierState argument which indicates whichspecial keys are pressed at the time of a mouse click. And some of thefunctions can also take a button argument whichindicates which mouse button was clicked.

The modifierState is an integer used as abit-flag. Its value can be 0 (no modifiers) or one or moreof: 1 (Shift), 2 (Control), 4(Command), 8 (Option), with multiple modifiers or-edtogether (e.g., 1|2 for Shift+Control).

The button is an integer: 0signifies the 'primary' mouse button (most commonly theleft button), and 1 signifies the right button.

Squish enables testing of native Carbon and Cocoa GUI applications on Apple OS X systems. Squish is the only GUI testing tool for OS X applications that offers a tight - still non-intrusive - integration into the Carbon and Cocoa system toolkits. Tests can be recorded or written manually in JavaScript, Python, Perl, or Tcl. Squash (was Squish) is a super-simple app for compressing your images for lower filesize! Don't lose quality, or end up with grainy or horrible images. Squish maintains their existing resolution and quality, and just reduces the filesize! Whatever your reason, Squish is great for optimizing images for.

Here are some quick links to the macOS Convenience API's functions:

activateItem(objectOrName);

SQUISH Mac OS

This function activates the objectOrName menuitem. This menu item must be a reference to (or a name that identifies)an NSMenuItem or a Carbon menu item. The menu itemcan be part of the application menu or a menu item inside anNSPopUpButton.

macOS Universal Access

In order to replay menu activations on macOS as well as use the nativeTypeand nativeMouseClick functions you have to enable accessibility support in theSystem Preferences for certain processes. The system will open up a popupdialog when starting the Squish IDE the first time that allows you to directly go thepreferences dialog to enable accessibility support for the Squish IDE.

The dialog can also be opened manually:Open the System Preferences and choose Security& Privacy. Then choose the Privacy tab andselect Accessibility on the left side.

In order to make changes, click the symbol in thelower left and enter the credentials of an administrative user. Thencheck the Squishide orTerminal app which needs permissions, from the list.

Note that at any given time there will be only one Squish IDE instance that hasaccess to the accessibility API and hence can run scripts that automate menus,use the nativeType or the nativeMouseClick function. In order to use another SquishIDE - for example from another Squish installation on the same system - youneed to remove the existing entry completely from the list and then start theother instance of the Squish IDE. Then enable accessibility support again whenthe dialog pops up.

Finally it may sometimes happen that macOS always asks for enabling theaccessibility support during the startup of the Squish IDE. In such cases ithelps to completely reset the database for Accessibility-enablement and clearout the whole list. Rust away mac os. This can be done using thetccutil from macOS:

After executing the command restart the Squish IDE to trigger theAccessibility-enablement popup again.

clearWebObjectCache();

This function clears the cache for hierarchical names for objects in a WebView.This can be useful in cases where a web application removes some elements ofa web page after interacting with it and then the same hierarchical name usedbefore should find a different object. Without clearing the cache in this situationthe old object will be retrieved from the cache when searching for the hierarchicalname after the website has changed its content. The cache however is necessary to keeplookup for hierarchical performant and scalable for deeper hierarchies.

This function is identical to mouseClick.It is included only for compatibility with old scripts. It should not beused in new scripts since it may eventually be removed from Squish.

—deprecated— clickTab(objectOrName);

This function is identical to mouseClick.It is included only for compatibility with old scripts. It should not beused in new scripts since it may eventually be removed from Squish.

doubleClick(objectOrName, x, y);

doubleClick(objectOrName, x, y, modifierState, button);

This function double-clicks the mouse on the specifiedobjectOrName widget.

By default the object is clicked in the middle, but this can be changedby passing object-relative coordinates, x andy. By default button 0 (the primary button)is used, but this can be changed by specifying the optionalbutton argument. Similarly a defaultmodifier state of 0 (no modifiers) is used, but this can bechanged by specifying the modifierState argument.Note that to specify the modifier, the button must also be specified,and to specify the modifier, the position must be specified.See Mac Convenience Function Parameters for whichvalues are valid for the modifierState and forthe button arguments.

This function takes a screenshot of the objectwindow (or widget) and returns it as an QImage Object (Section 6.3.13).

The Newer Way to Grab a Widget

Instead of using grabWidget to get anAUT-side QImage, it is easier to capture an Image Object (Section 6.3.14)using object.grabScreenshot.The Image.save function allows you to savedirectly to a location on the squishrunner host.

See the waitForObject and findObject functions for how to get an objectreference to a window or widget.

installEventHandler(eventName, handlerFunctionName);

This function installs a global event handler. The script functionnamed in handlerFunctionName (which must be passedas a string, not as a function reference, except for Python, whichsupports passing a function reference, too), will be called when an eventof the eventName type occurs.

Squish Mac Os Catalina

The eventName can be the name of any of thefollowing event types:

  • 'SheetOpened' – occurs when amacOS sheet is shown (note that this only applies to Cocoaapplications)

  • 'WindowOpened' – occurs when amacOS toplevel window is shown (note that this only applies to Cocoaapplications)

  • 'Timeout' –occurs when the Squish response timeout is reached

  • When the SheetOpened event occurs, the functionnamed in handlerFunctionName is called. Thefunction is passed one argument—the window object that opened thesheet. If you want to access the sheet itself, call theattachedSheet function on theNSWindow object.

    When the WindowOpened event occurs, the functionnamed in handlerFunctionName is called. Thefunction is passed one argument—the window object that was opened.The event occurs only for toplevel windows (NSWindow andNSPanel objects), but it does not occur for windows thatare shown as sheets. Use the SheetOpened event ifyou are interested in sheets.

    Python-specific

    In Python scripts, you can specify the callback function to invoke bypassing an actual function or a lambda function.

    For examples see How to Use Event Handlers (Section 5.10).

    The AUT Must be Running

    The installEventHandler function will only work if it iscalled after the AUT has been started (e.g., usingthe startApplication function).

    mouseClick(objectOrName, x, y);

    mouseClick(objectOrName, x, y, modifierState, button);

    This function clicks the mouse on the specifiedobjectOrName widget.

    By default the object is clicked in the middle, but this can be changedby passing object-relative coordinates, x andy. By default button 0 (the primary button)is used, but this can be changed by specifying the optionalbutton argument. Similarly a defaultmodifier state of 0 (no modifiers) is used, but this can bechanged by specifying the modifierState argument.Note that to specify the modifier, the button must also be specified,and to specify the modifier, the position must be specified.See Mac Convenience Function Parameters for whichvalues are valid for the modifierState and forthe button arguments.

    mouseDrag(objectOrName, x, y, dx, dy, modifierState, button);

    This function performs a mouse drag from theobjectOrName widget to a position that ishorizontally offset by dx pixels and verticallyoffset by dy pixels from positionx, y in theobjectOrName widget's coordinates.

    By default button 0 (the primary button) is used, but this can be changedby specifying the optional button argument.Similarly a default modifier state of 0 (no modifiers) is used, but thiscan be changed by specifying the modifierStateargument. Note that to specify the modifier, the button must also bespecified, and to specify the modifier, the position must be specified. SeeMac Convenience Function Parameters for which values arevalid for the modifierState and for thebutton arguments.

    mouseMove(objectOrName, x, y);

    This function moves the mouse to the center of theobjectOrName widget, or if coordinates arespecified, to position x andy relative to theobjectOrName widget.

    This function is useful if you want to trigger events that need themouse to be at a particular position. For example, tooltips normallyonly appear when the mouse is over a certain area.

    This function ensures that the objectOrNamewidget is visible in the scroll widget that contains it, by scrolling ifnecessary.

    If there are nested scroll widgets, the innermost one that contains theobjectOrName widget is the one that will bescrolled.

    Currently this function only works for NSViewsubclasses and for items in a NSTableView andNSOutlineView. If you need support for otherclasses, contact froglogic support.

    type(objectOrName, text);

    Squish Mac Os Download

    This function types the specified text (as if theuser had used the keyboard) into the objectOrNameeditable widget. If the text is surrounded by angle brackets (<>),it is interpreted as a key combination, e.g''. The input is case-sensitive, sotype(object, 'R') is different fromtype(object, 'r').

    The following non-printable keys are supported in key combinations:,,,,,,,,,,,,,and.

    uninstallEventHandler(eventName, handlerFunctionName);

    This function uninstalls an event handler that has been previouslyinstalled using installEventHandler.

      Squish is the leading functional, cross-platform GUI and regression testing tool that can test applications based on a variety of GUI technologies, including Java SWT/Eclipse RCP, Java AWT/Swing, JavaFX, the Qt, QML and QtQuick GUI toolkits, Windows MFC, .NET WindowsForms and WPF, Mac OS X Carbon/Cocoa, iOS Cocoa Touch, Android and Web/HTML5/AJAX/Flex.

      Squish stands out from other GUI testing tools by giving test engineers the freedom to record and write tests using familiar scripting languages such as JavaScript, Perl, Python, Tcl, and Ruby.

      Furthermore, Squish provides extremely tight integration with the specific GUI technologies it supports. This gives testers unprecedented access to the internals of the applications they are testing (to data items, controls, widgets, etc.), and also leads to the production of very robust and stable GUI tests.

      Squish and all the tests created with it, are completely cross-platform, and work on Windows, Linux/Unix, Mac OS X, embedded Linux, iOS, Android and several RTOSes.

      Squish is being successfully used in more than 3000 QA departments across the world in thousands of companies both large and small, including, for example, Airbus, ARM, American Power Conversion, Boeing, Daimler, Electronic Arts, EADS, Ericsson, France Telecom Group, General Electric, Intel, SAP, Siemens, Synopsys, Xilinx and several government organizations.
