[news.eclipse.tools.hyades] Automated testing

[mitch.christensen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Mitch Christensen)]

Is anyone doing *any* automated testing (ala Mercury Interactive's
WinRunner or IBM's XDE)?

It seems that whatever time/effort we may have saved by using the Eclipse
RCP development platform is now being consumed by our purely manual
testing process.  We were able to reduce the number of developers by
leveraging Eclipse/RCP over JFC, but we now need twice as many QA testers
to do manual functional and regression testing because we don't have any
viable testing automation.

If Hyades is just a 'platform' (rather than a automated test tool), is
there *any* automated test tools that work with Eclipse/SWT?  We've tried
WinRunner and XDE with no sucess.

Any suggestions?
