Hi,��

Well��� we ���plan��� to have tests also on UI.��

But this is hard.��

And not just because of the tooling, but also because having a coherent metaphor to organise everything is hard.��

We are working (very slowly) in that direction.

And eventually, we would like to have also UI tests.��

Hi all,

Pharo team is attaching great care in securing and improving the development process, notably by promoting usage of tests and continuous integration.

I think a very good job is already done in the libraries provided by Pharo. But sometimes I encounter more hickups with the development tools themselves.

So I wonder: does this apply to the GUI yet?

This is a difficult area, but nowadays this exists elsewhere.

For example, with Elm and Elmer (https://medium.com/@brian.watkins/test-driving-elm-with-elmer-649e2e7e02a8), TDD can be applied on UI, providing both a formal specification and non regression tests.

Do we have something similar?

Don't we wish having something similar?
