If you are writing a Swing application, you will appreciate UISpec4J above all for its simplicity: UISpec4J's APIs are designed to hide as much as possible the complexity of Swing, resulting in easy to write and easy to read test scripts. This is especially true when comparing UISpec4J tests with those produced using Swing or low-level, event-based testing libraries.

The...JuiPiter provides a mechanism to separate Swing tasks from long running non-UI tasks. The core of the JuiPiter mechanism is the Window Logic Decoupler. The decoupler, in addition to memory management and externalized strings, adds a single local Thread (non-Swing) per window that acts as the delegate. The single thread aspect solves the multi-Thread concurrency management that the developer must handle is using other options, i.e., SwingWorkerThread, FoxTrot, Spin. All Swing and delegate tasks communicate through a message passing, publish and subscribe mechanism. Each task publishes messages through the decoupler. The use of queues allows the tasks to communicate without specific synchronization. There is one set of queues and a delegate thread for each Window, though a way to pass messages between Windows has been implemented. Along with this simple messaging infrastructure, JuiPiter also includes a number of Swing component helper classes and an extensive sample application, similar to the SwingSet, that demonstrates all the aspects of the JuiPiter framework. JuiPiter is designed in layers so that some developers may use just the messaging foundation while others will also use the component helpers and utility classes.

It is built on top of Swing, but provides a completely new set of classes to represent graphical components. It offers many advantages over using Swing directly, including: * A much simpler, cleaner, and more consistent API * A better mechanism for laying out interface components * A far more powerful event handling mechanism, which is based on dynamic binding of arbitrary methods as event listeners * Built in support for serializing user interfaces as XML, then reconstructing them again Other important features of Buoy include: * It forms a "transparent wrapper" around Swing. It hides the complexity of Swing when you don't want to deal with it, but doesn't get in your way when you actually need that complexity. * It is very small and efficient. The entire compiled library is only 200 K. * It is written entirely in Java, and works on any JVM that is compatible with J2SE 1.4 or later. * All source code is in the public domain.

You dont need to use JSP files, special tags, XML files, requests, posts, etc. Everything is Java and pure HTML files that comes directly from the graphic designer. WebOnSwing is an open source project distributed under LGPL license. This framework constructs and handles html pages with Swing components, allowing to use MVC architecture and all the facilities provided by Swing in the web. The main purpose of WebOnSwing is not to provide a migration tool for preexisting Swing applications to a web environment, although you can use this framework to do that kind of tasks. WebOnSwing make a re use of a solid, tested and well known architecture like Swing's one in web developement process. Provides a powerful template engine that simplify the integration of components and windows with html templates. WebOnSwing templates dont need any special tag and dont have absolutly nothing of logic inside, so you can interchange those in a polimorphic way to create differents skins of your component, pages or entire site, with no recoding. WebOnSwing default window manager allows the use of modal windows transparently, keeping the stack of windows and each one state within the html page, to be able to reconstruct navigation completely, with no need to maintain any data in the server session. With this aproach passing parameters throught differents windows is easy and dont need a special treatment. Another interesting feature is the capacity to refresh components, that allows to update single parts of the page which have changed from last request, remarkably lowering to the traffic of the sucesive requirements and increasing the speed of page responses. Also using the automatic refresh feature is possible to simulate the behavior of a desktop application from web, obtaining the differences of the view by periodics polling from client side to server.

It finds all windows in explored Swing application and displays their component hierarchies as a tree. Each component in the tree can be displayed in the Swing Explorer's work area and visually inspected. Swing Explorer helps to determine sub-components when user moves mouse over them and provides additional information about currently selected component (layout, size, coordinates, border and other things). Additionally it allows to view basic graphical operations used to draw swing components like DebugGraphics does, but in more convenient way.

It is intended for embedding web-based user interfaces into Java applications (ex. web photo album generator, help viewer, iTunes Music Store clone). It cannot be used as a general purpose web browser since it does not support the malformed legacy HTML found on the web, though recent work on compatibility libraries may be enough to do what you need. You may be able to work with legacy HTML (e.g. HTML that is not well-formed XML) by using a pre-processor that cleans it up; there are several of these, including JTidy and TagSoup.
