[Announce] Java API to write LDTP (GUI Automation) tests

[Nagappan Alagappan]

Hello,

I'm happy to announce, we have added Java API support to write GUI tests
using LDTP [1] API.

Java LDTP client source:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/ldtp/ldtp2/tree/ldtp/Java

Dependency:

Apache XML-RPC library (http://ws.apache.org/xmlrpc/)
Apache codec base 64 library (http://commons.apache.org/codec/)
LDTP binaries (Python on Linux, CobraWinLDTP.msi on Windows)

Tested on both Windows and Linux.

To compile set the CLASSPATH of the following jar files:

commons-codec-1.6.jar
ws-commons-utils-1.0.2.jar
xmlrpc-client-3.1.3.jar
xmlrpc-common-3.1.3.jar

Java documentation available here - http://ldtp.freedesktop.org/javadoc/

Thanks to team of people in VMware, helping me in creating the jar file and
bundling it with Cobra msi.

Get the latest MSI from -
http://download.freedesktop.org/ldtp/cobra-latest/CobraWinLDTP.msi

Thanks
Nagappan
