Thread: Is there something in the JCK test suite that tests JavaFX?

We do our java build from source, and run the standard JCK test suite as a sanity check before release. We are just adding Java 8, and thus JavaFX (we didn't incorporate it for Java 7). There doesn't seem to be anything in the JCK 8 that touches on JavaFX.

Is anyone aware of anything that will test the JavaFX functionality? As I say, this is not for a JavaFX application but to make sure our build of JavaFX itself has no issues.

I think you're talking way above most people here, but I'll be the dumbest guy in the room and ask you what the heck you're talking about.

Since you're talking about the JCK, or Java Compatibility Kit, I assume you're using Open JDK. Right?

And since you're talking about "building", does that mean you're taking Open JDK source code and building it yourselves for a specific platform or platforms? And does the JavaFX code come separately rather than built into Open JDK as it is in Oracle's JDK since JDK 7?

Since you'll be schooling us (me anyway), you may not get an answer to your question here, but if you'd like to fill in some of those details, maybe it'll help others understand and even encourage a response that might be helpful.

Whichever path you choose, good luck!

We actually have a Java source license, though I don't think there is much difference anymore from the Open JDK.

Yes, I'm building for SLES 11 because we have sometimes had some problems using the built binary release. I run it through the test suite to make sure it is functional. The JavaFX is built separately from its own source package, not combined as in the binary release package.

I just haven't found an equivalent way to test the JavaFX parts. I would like to do some prefunctory testing before releasing to our App developers.
