Functional testing proxy SDK technology samples
Functional testing proxy SDK samples are simple examples of proxy source code and applications under test (AUT).
Flex control proxy
This FlexCustomControl sample explains how to extend the recording behavior of a control with SubItems and support the playback for the extended recording behavior. The sample works with the application under test sample. To view the samples, import the flex proxy for which the proxy is being written into your workspace.
Testing the flex proxy sample
With this proxy sample you learn how to write a simple proxy, map proxies to controls (handled internally), deploy proxies, and verify that the proxies work.

    Functional testing proxy SDK samples are simple examples of proxy source code and applications under test (AUT).
    - ButtonProxy
      The ButttonProxy sample has two HCL OneTest™ UI proxies. There is one button control each for the Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT) and the Java foundation class (JFC). The sample works with the application-under-test (AUT) sample.
    - JFormattedTextFieldProxy
      This JFormattedTextFieldProxy sample explains how create a new proxy class add new control properties and control data. The sample works with the application-under-test (AUT) sample.
    - CheckBoxProxy
      This CheckBoxProxy sample explains how to create a new proxy class and new TestObjects and then map them to the javax.swing.JCheckBox control. The sample works with the application-under-test (AUT) sample.
    - Button OverrideProxy
      This ButtonOverrideProxy sample explains how you can extend the recording behavior of HCL OneTest™ UI, add more properties and set up a simple value manager and value class. This sample proxy is written for the java.awt.Button control. The sample works with the application-under-test sample (AUT).
    - JSpinnerProxy
      This JSpinnerProxy sample explains how to extend recording behavior of a control with SubItems, and support the playback for the extended recording behavior. The sample works with the application-under-test (AUT) sample.
    - TreeProxy
      This TreeProxy sample explains how to extend recording behavior of a control with SubItems, and support the playback for the extended recording behavior. The sample works with the application-under-test (AUT) sample. To view the samples, you must import the tree proxy, tree application and the tree custom control for which the proxy is being written into your workspace.
    - Flex control proxy
      This FlexCustomControl sample explains how to extend the recording behavior of a control with SubItems and support the playback for the extended recording behavior. The sample works with the application under test sample. To view the samples, import the flex proxy for which the proxy is being written into your workspace.

Testing the flex proxy sample

With this proxy sample you learn how to write a simple proxy, map proxies to controls (handled internally), deploy proxies, and verify that the proxies work.

To test the sample, complete these procedures:

Open the application file mypage.htm located at < HCL OneTest™ UI install>\SDP\FunctionalTester\Flex\flexcustomcontrolapp.zip after unzipping it.
Add the sample application path to the trusted directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerTrust\ by creating a file without an extension. For example, create a file named Flex in the trusted directory and add the file path of the sample application C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP\FunctionalTester\Flex\flexcustomcontrolapp\mypage.htm to it.
Copy the contents of the ClassInfo tag in C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP\FunctionalTester\Flex\flexcustomcontrolapp\FlexCustom.xml file into < HCL OneTest™ UI install>\bin\FlexEnv.xml file.
Invoke the sample Flex application and try recording on it.

Deploy the binary files

Deploy the FlexCustomControl.jar and FlexCustomControl.rftcust files to the customization directory. For example, C:\ProgramData\IBM\RFT\customization . Close HCL OneTest™ UI, all Java enabled applications and browsers so that the new customization class is loaded. Restart HCL OneTest™ UI to test the sample application under test.

Verify the proxy deployment

You can test the controls that are provided as part of the FlexCustomControlApp application under test by verifying the proxy class name before and after deployment.

Before you deploy the proxies, notice that the Proxy Class Name (#proxy) property under Administrative properties for FlexCustomControl is .flex.FlexObjectProxy . This is the default value for this control. Before you deploy the proxies, notice that the event method is captured as follows:
```
flex_FlexCustomControl().performAction("Select","Food");
```
After you deploy the proxies, sdk.sample.flex.FlexCustomControlProxy is the newly developed proxy for the FlexCustomControl control. After you deploy the proxies notice also that the event method is captured as follows:
```
Select("Food");
```
