Hi All! After having dealt with a number of issues in these last few months, we believe that the updated Dogtail, GUI test tool and automation framework, has now reached a state when we can release it. So finally - now more than two years after the last stable version - Dogtail 0.8.0 is out! It's already syncing into Fedora repositories, but you can also get it here [1]. So what is new? Some of you might have noticed, that Dogtail was no good since the release of Fedora 15. Thus most significantly, Dogtail was ported to be compatible with new GNOME 3 technologies and now works well again in major distributions centered around GNOME 3. And as a new, thanks to qt-at-spi, Dogtail now supports QT too and it can be used to test and automate KDE/QT applications as well! With QT accessibility enabled you will see the complete UI trees of QT applications as you were used to with GTK+ apps. KDE sessions are now supported both for working and script running environment out of the box with KDE 4.8.x and QT 4.8.2 onward. There were many more changes in Dogtail 0.8.0, you can find release highlights in the release notes [2]. We are making the 0.8.x series of releases the GNOME 3 / KDE 4 compatible branch, but for all of you who are using GNOME 2 / GTK+ 2 based systems we are continuing the 0.7.x branch, having released a bug-fixing update recently too [1]. We hope that all of you interested in GUI testing and automation will be interested in using dogtail again for GTK+ and try it up for QT apps too! Please don't hesitate to ask on IRC or write to the dogtail-list [3] if you have any questions. Thanks!
