Getting an example of a dog tail script to run on Ubuntu 10.04

Question

I recently installed Dogtail, an open source GUI testing tool and automation system. I downloaded the sample script (https://fedorahosted.org/dogtail/browser/examples/gedit-test-utf8-tree-api.py?format=txt) to my computer, but I had problems with its operation. When I call it, I get a message:

corey@corey-laptop:~/Desktop/exercise$ ./gedit-test-utf8-tree-api.py 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./gedit-test-utf8-tree-api.py", line 6, in <module>
    from dogtail import tree
  File "/home/joe/Desktop/exercise/dogtail.py", line 6, in <module>
    from dogtail import tree
ImportError: cannot import name tree

I am using Ubuntu 10.04. I am not sure why this will not work or how to fix it. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Do not specify the file in / home / joe / Desktop / exercise dogtail:

  File "/home/joe/Desktop/exercise/dogtail.py", line 6, in <module>
    from dogtail import tree

Python dogtail.py , /usr/share/python -support/python-dogtail/dogtail.

, python

import dogtail
dogtail.__file__
