Behavior of the error tree is not consistent. It
should not be available only after pre-execution validation. It should
also react on script changes. Also need a way to configure it.

VNCRobot
in combination with TightVNC on Windows has
a refresh problem. Application windows sometimes display without
content
and the window image appears piece by piece as user move the mouse
pointer over the application.
WORKAROUND: Select

window. |

The VNC
viewer sometimes gets stuck and stops to

observed
just with Java 1.5 on Solaris.
WORKAROUND: If
you experience this problem, use Java 1.4 (1.4.2_04 and higher)

it can't be used together with VNC servers and devices which support

When
a Waitfor match command
without an explicit pass rate is executed using the search method, it
uses the default pass rate of the default method.
WORKAROUND: Use explicit pass rate (e.g. Waitfor
match method=search
passrate=100%) |
Fixed
in 1.3.8 |
13045
|
11/11/07 |
The Waitfor match command doesn't handle situations where image comparison takes too long
and exceeds the configured interval or even the timeout. It starts a
new comparison thread even if the previous one hasn't finished yet. The
impact is that the command may fail without any obvious reason and
users may experience very slow performance cause by the running image
comparison threads in the background.
This bug affects mainly image comparisons through the search method which use lower than
100% pass rates.
WORKAROUND: Perform the image comparison manually first (e.g.
through the Waitfor match window) and set the interval and timeout time parameters
longer than the observed comparison time. Alternatively use the highest
pass rate possible (100% in case of image search ideally). |
Fixed

keys 'Windows' and 'Properties' are not
available.
NOTE: Though
these keys are available in VNCRobot if run with Java 1.5, they do not
work correctly. This issue is being investigated.

A few
users reported that the 'default' and 'search'
image comparison methods sometimes fail with OutOfMemoryError or
an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in the Java PixelGrabber
class.
NOTE: The current implementation of the image comparsion algorithms
unfortunately processes all the image pixels at once. The code will be
improved to load the pixels gradually to decrease the memory
consumption. |

The
'search' comparison method should provide
coordinates of the first match point also in the form of _SEARCH_X_1
and _SEARCH_Y_1 to allow easier processing in a 'for' statement. |
