iTestRT and plugin jars, anything special to install them vs. for the GUI?

I have a plugin that I have successfully built and installed, and used, in the GUI. The problem comes in trying to install and use it in the iTestRT environment. I have taken the same jar file and copied it into the plugins directory under the iTestRT directory, but when I run a simple test case (in an itar, with the session profile for this new application session) that works in the GUI, I find that it doesn't recognize the application session type.

Is there anything special to getting iTestRT to recognize plugins that are installed into it's plugins directory?

p.s. this plugin is very simple, it has no GUI widgets, there is merely data input and data output actions.

Thanks!

You shouldn't have to do anything different. It may be that your plug-in has dependenciies on some iTest plugins, (which you may not even be using in your plugin) and which are not present for iTestRT. Can you confirm that all the plugins listed in the Dependencies page are present in the iTestRT/plugins folder?

That worked, thanks!

In doing a rundown of the list of dependencies in the Eclipse Plugin Project that I was building, I found one jar file that doesn't exist in the iTestRT/plugins dir that does exist in iTest/plugins: com.fnfr.open.automation.tool.ui_4.1.0.55393.jar. Once that was copied into RT's plugins dir, it worked.

Thanks again,

Todd
