Hi Semyon,

Thank you for the review comment. 
The test can’t be automated because of the following reasons:

On Mac OS X and Windows:
	There is no key code for the right ALT button (no right key codes for ALT, SHIFT, COMMAND).	robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ALT) will press the left ALT key.
	It is not possible to press the right ALT key using robot. 
	Hence Alt-Gr modifier won’t be set using robot.

On Linux:
	The Alt graph is configurable.

Regards,
Manajit
