It was the first meetup with the new format, the meetup is now:
- Hold at lunch time instead of the evening (12h30 - 13h30).
- We use Google Hangout even those not present physically can participate.
- And even those we can’t participate can view the meetup afterward as we record it.
Unfortunately we forgot to record the hangout session, so no video is available for this first time.
- It’s an automation tool.
- Works by simulating keyboards events.
- It’s using
java.awt.Robot
(from the JDK). - Allow to automatizing of repetitive GUI tasks.
- Github repo comming soon (tm)
We’ve seen an example of the usage of the lib and the code itself.
- Organiser should open the hangout 15 minutes before the start time: Tech difficulties happened (network problem, GoogleTalkPlugin problem, access rights, …).
- Participants should check their config and verify that audio in / out is working: On this meetup, Denis was the only one with a microphone working: It was a long and strange monologue ;-)
Very nice meetup, the lunch hours are nicer than staying up late, and the Google Hangout is working really well.
All good!
