UI Test Automation with Project White

I don't know many details right now, but ThoughtWorks just released something called Project White as a new toolkit for test automation of WinForms and WPF user interfaces.  It might be worth checking out.  It's released as OSS under the Apache 2 license.

I'm happily doing automated testing of my new WinForms application, but I've purposely built that automated testing support in from the get go (I build a Window Driver into every screen and use some IoC magic).  I'll write up my solution as part of Build your own CAB soon, but I think most people will prefer something like Project White instead.

Checking this out now - pre-req' are .Net 3.0.  If it pans out it could be promising ...

We've been using it on .Net 3.0 projects for over 6 months now with a fair degree of success.

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for the heads up,  it's something I've been looking into recently and it was really interesting.

Blogged about my initial thoughts on the framework if your interested:

Could you dig a little deeper on your Window Driver concept/technique?

Hello,

Could you, please, tell me, what GUI(or nonGUI) Tests-Runner i must use to run White tests.

I use NUnit to run nonGUI unit test. But,unfortunately, i can't use it to run White tests.

Thank.
