[swtbot-dev] Applicability of SWTBot to drive performance testing?

[Pascal Rapicault <pascal@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm exploring how to measure the "perceived performance" of certain 
actions in Eclipse such as time to open a file, time to switch between 
editor, etc. Given that the scenarios I care about represent user 
triggered behaviour I was thinking that I could be using SWTBot to drive 
those tests.
Do you think using SWTBot for this is a good idea, and is feasible or 
would SWTBot cause too much "noise" for my measurements to be reliable?
