twist.properties file is present under src directory. In case of the SWT and Eclipse-plugin Application Testing (Eclipse Java Editor example) it is under scenarios/src directory.
Twist currently bundles the following samples
- Web Application Testing with Selenium (uses Mingle) - An example test suite that demonstrates how Twist can be used with a typical AJAX application. This test suite uses Selenium driver. Implicit waits eliminate the need to use explicit synchronization statements in the Selenium code, which can significantly reduce the amount of Selenium code required to drive the browser. Implicit waits can also help make the tests more robust.
- Web Application Testing with Sahi (uses Mingle) - An example test suite that demonstrates how Twist can be used with a typical AJAX application. This test suite Sahi driver.
- Swing Application Testing (Book Store Example) - An example test suite that demonstrates how Twist can be used to write scenarios for a typical non-UI business application.
- SWT and Eclipse-plugin Application Testing (Eclipse Java Editor example) - This example shows how the SWTBot driver can be used with Twist to test SWT/Eclipse-plugin applications.
