Ever thought of having your UI verified automatically?

It only looks hard—it is quite easy having right tools and techniques. We, in JavaFX team, have a few and willing to share.

Indeed, UI testing cannot only be manual because all levels of testing are applicable to a UI code, including unit testing, pre-integration testing, build acceptance testing, etc.

During the session, we will be creating UI tests from scratch and showing a few of existing tests along with other tools making our life easier. We will be showing how to make UI tests stable and inexpensive to support. Your takeaway from the session would be a set of open-source tools and UI testing concepts to write JavaFX UI tests as easy as your regular unit tests.
