JComboBoxFixture's enterText method ignores first character of string parameter

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Here is a sample line of code that produces this problem:

wrapperEditor.comboBox("delimitersList").doubleClick().enterText("hey").pressAnd
ReleaseKeys(VK_ENTER);

Where wrapperEditor is a Frame Fixture.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The string "hey" should be typed into the editable combo box, but instead
the string "ey" is entered. If you are trying enter a string only one
character in length, fest will hang.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using version RC2 on Windows XP.

Please provide any additional information below.

I could not reproduce this bug. Please see the test case at
http://code.google.com/p/fest/source/browse/trunk/fest/fest-swing/src/test/java/

I'm using Metal L&F on WinXP. Which L&F are you using?

I'm closing the bug, but feel free to open it at any time.

Thanks for trying this out. So I wrote a simpler test case, and I couldn't 
reproduce
either. I guess I'm getting into some weird state to make this happen. I know
something is up, because the test having problems was written and worked with 
fest
0.8.1 (I think). Once I upgraded to 1.0 RC2, this test started failing. Here is 
the
stack trace of the failure if you are interested:

Testcase: 
Focus change to javax.swing.JComboBox[name='delimitersList',
selectedItem='99Automatic', contents=['99Automatic', '93Whitespace', '59Equals',
'78Commas', '4None', '29<default>'], editable=true, enabled=true, visible=true,
showing=true] failed

The work around is simple enough, so if we can't figure this out, it's OK. 
Thank you
for helping me out though.

Ben

I am experiencing this problem too but only when the first character entered is
numeric (some symbols also). I am using fest-swing-1.0.
