Provides classes and interfaces for writing UI tests using the WindowTester API.

WindowTester test cases are subclasses of junit.extensions.UITestCase which is a special JUnit test case, tailored for running User Interface (UI) tests. These test cases interact with the UI using an instance of IUIContext which is retrieved from the UITestCase using it's junit.extensions.UITestCase#getUIContext() method. IUIConext supports common UI actions like entering text, clicking widgets, dragging and dropping components and so on.

UI Tests are made robust using Conditions. Conditions implement the ICondition interface and are commonly used to cause tests to pause until some condition becomes true (for instance once a file is created on the filesystem). Conditions can also be registered with the runtime's IConditionMonitor and used to trigger IHandler instances. Shell Conditions (implemented as IShellConditions) are special conditions used to test conditions on shells. Registering handlers to handle shell conditions is helpful in cases where shell appearances are hard to predict (such as progress monitors). Shell handlers are associated with the runtime through the UI Context's IShellMonitor instance.
