Getting Started With Sikuli

Asked by vivek

I am new to sikuli and python (jython). I want to do some GUI testing using unittest and test suites

I need help on how to install it correctly with the right libararies and use the import in sikuli.
I have been looking at lots of tutorials but they seem to start from mid-way and I need a more simple explanation.

any help would be greatly appreciated

a good start might be faq 1804

You can start with plain Sikuli IDE to set up your first scripts and you may run them from command line.

... and if you are familiar with Java unit testing, this should be your first choice.

... or even something like RobotFrameWork

Thanks for the reply RaiMan
I am actually new to programming so i m not familiar with java unit testing

Following your advice, I have been writing simple sikuli scripts and running them from the command line.

the next thing i was trying to do was to run the few tests i had written from a main.sikuli script using a test suite and following the faq 1804 but it isnt working

the moment i put anything before the def in the script, the tests dont work from the unit test in the ide or even from the command line.

I had put from sikuli import * at the beginnning of xxxx.sikuli (Thats before the defs) and its not working now. am i doing it all wrong?

The problem in your case:

Sikuli scripts containing unittest test classes and will be imported by a main script, should not have the same name as one of the contained test classes.

Can you help with this problem?
