The Runtime View controls states of the validation process during an Inter-JVM (Internal) AOP-based validation launched from either the Java Application with ACTF or Eclipse Application with ACTF launch configurations.
Notice that each toggle may be checked or unchecked and each toggle has a message for each of these states. This message gives more information about the state of the validation process.
The following table describes each toggle available in the view:
Toggle | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
Perform validation | When checked, ACTF is validating the GUI launched from either the Java or Eclipse Application with ACTF launch configuration. Think of this toggle as a start/stop validation switch for ACTF. The toggle is useful for larger applications in which a validation of the entire application is not necessary; validations can be enabled when desired, and haulted for parts of the application that need not be validated. |
checked |
Validate hidden |
When checked, ACTF will validate hidden components, components that may not
be visible on the screen and that may have their visibility property set to |
unchecked |
Revalidate components |
When checked, ACTF will re-validate GUI component instances that have previously been
validated. Whether or not a GUI component has been validated depends upon whether ACTF has encountered the
hash code of the component as returned by |
checked |
