Hi,

I run into trouble with QtTest when I want to use classes which call the KGlobal::locale() method (e.g. the constructor of KPIM::KDateEdit). The Problem is KGlobal::locale() returns a null pointer if it is called outside of a KApplication context and so the test will crash. Is there a way how to deal with such classes when working with the test framework of Qt?

Thanks

You need to create a KAboutData and then initialise KCmdLineArgs, using init()

The following code in main() should do the job.

Code: Select all

KAboutData aboutData("appname", 0, ki18n("App Name"), "0.1");
KCmdLineArgs::init(argc, argv, &aboutData);

Use one of the QTEST_KDEMAIN* macros instead of QTEST_MAIN. See qtest_kde.h.

Great.

Hi,

it's me again. Thanks for the QTEST_KDEMAIN advice it solved the null pointer problem. But a new problem with KDateTime occured: the KDateTime::toUtc() method doesn't convert the date time to UTC. A short example (my time zone is CET):

Code: Select all

KDateTime dateTime(QDate(2000, 12, 31), QTime(14, 30));
dateTime.toUtc().toString(); //Returns "2000-12-31T14:30:00Z"

With the QTEST_MAIN macro it works correct:

Code: Select all

KDateTime dateTime(QDate(2000, 12, 31), QTime(14, 30));
dateTime.toUtc().toString(); //Returns "2000-12-31T13:30:00Z"

Is this a feature or bug of the QTEST_KDEMAIN macros?
