I have installed ldtp_1.7.2 build. Launched ldtpeditor on Ubuntu10.04. Afterthat, I launched my tool. But am not able record navigate to my tool. Once stop the record, I clicked play button, it throws below error msg....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the LDTP editor, having "file and help" menu only. "view and Edit" menu is missing. For that am not able to configure log file also.

Thnx,

Hello Balan,

LDTP editor is deprecated. BTW, you are using old version of LDTP, the latest released version is 2.0.6 and there are quite a bit enhancements in git head.

At VMware and in Ubuntu, we all write the script manually, as that process seems to be much faster and consistent. Recording through the editor, doesn't work well, unfortunately !

Thanks
Nagappan

Hi Nagappan,

Thank you for your timely response. Actually I tried latest LDTP build 2.0.6, but this tarball does not have configure file. Without config file how can I install the build. 

This is the link I used to download the build:
http://download.freedesktop.org/ldtp/2.x/2.0.x/

Plz help me.

Regds,

sudo python setup.py install

For installation, the above command is working fine. After install the
build, am not able to run "ldtpeditor".  could you please guide me the
whole LDTP setup? Actually I wanna some example script for navigate
the menus, it would be helpful for me to understand.

Thank you,
balan
