[UITests] New framework around WinApp CLI, no WinAppDriver or Selenium. (#48467)
# Add winappcli-based UI test harness (no WinAppDriver / Selenium) ## Summary Introduces a new UI test harness — `Microsoft.PowerToys.UITest.Next` — that drives PowerToys modules through Microsoft's [winappcli](https://github.com/microsoft/WinAppCli) (UI Automation CLI) instead of WinAppDriver + Selenium. Engine is a single executable shelled out from C#; no third-party NuGet packages, no driver process, no Appium server. Adds two real consumers: a full ColorPicker end-to-end scenario and a Settings shell navigation smoke test. This is opt-in and additive — the existing `UITestAutomation` library and the WinAppDriver-based test projects are untouched. Both can coexist while we evaluate the new harness. Inspired in part by [#48414](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/48414), which lands the same architectural bet (winappcli, AutomationId selectors, no WinAppDriver) at a smaller scope. This PR generalizes it into a reusable library. ## Why WinAppDriver + Selenium is a legacy pre-agentic solution that is no longer actively maintained. It's unreliable, heavyweight, and slow. To achieve 100% UI test coverage, we should leverage modern, reliable solutions, and WinApp CLI is a strong candidate. ## What's in this PR ### Harness library — [`src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/) | File | Purpose | |---|---| | [`WinappCli.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/WinappCli.cs) | Process wrapper around `winapp.exe`. `Invoke` / `InvokeAssertSuccess` / `InvokeJson` / `IsAvailable` / `TryResolveExecutable`. `Result` carries the args and emits `DescribeFailure()` like `winapp ui invoke X -w 12345 -> exit 1; stderr: ...` | | [`Session.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/Session.cs) | Test session, scoped by either HWND (`-w`) or process (`-a`) via `TargetScope`. `Find<T>` / `FindAll<T>` / `Inspect` / `Screenshot` / `SendKeys`. `Session.FromProcess(...)` factory for the single-window-per-process case | | [`SessionHelper.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/SessionHelper.cs) | Owns the launch + window-readiness flow. Static `EnsureRunning(scope, timeout)` returns whether the call had to launch (so cleanup only kills what we started). Uses `UseShellExecute=true` so child handles don't keep MSTest hanging | | [`UITestBase.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/UITestBase.cs) | MSTest base class. Pre-flights `WinappCli.IsAvailable()` once per process and fails fast with the install hint if `winapp.exe` isn't on PATH | | [`Element/*.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/Element/) | `Element`, `Button`, `ToggleSwitch`, `TextBox`, `NavigationViewItem`, `Window`. `Click` / `MouseClick` / `Focus` / `GetProperty` / `GetValue` / `HelpText` / `WaitForProperty` / `WaitForGone` plus coords (`X`/`Y`/`Width`/`Height`) | | [`By.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/By.cs) | `By.Name` / `By.AccessibilityId` / `By.Id` / `By.Slug` | | [`Windows.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/Windows.cs) | `WindowsFinder.ListAll` / `ListByApp` / `WaitForWindowByApp` / `WaitForWindowByProcess`. Notes the winappcli bug where unfiltered `list-windows` drops untitled windows | | [`WindowControl.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/WindowControl.cs) | Tolerant Win32 helpers — `TryCloseByApp` / `TryFocusByApp` / `SafeCloseAndFocus` / `TryKillProcess` — for `finally` blocks | | [`KeyboardHelper.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/KeyboardHelper.cs) | Hybrid `keybd_event` + `SendKeys.SendWait` chord sender — required for global PowerToys hotkeys | | [`MouseHelper.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/MouseHelper.cs) | `MoveTo` / `LeftClick` / `RightClick` / `LeftClickAt` Win32 wrappers | | [`ClipboardHelper.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/ClipboardHelper.cs) | STA-thread `Clipboard` access with `WaitForText` | | [`ModuleConfigData.cs`](src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/ModuleConfigData.cs) | `PowerToysModule` enum + path/process-name resolution | ### Tests **[`src/modules/colorPicker/ColorPicker.UITests/`](src/modules/colorPicker/ColorPicker.UITests/)** — replaces the previous empty `UITest-ColorPicker` stub. One test, [`ColorPickerEndToEndTests.NavigateReadShortcutActivateAndCapture`](src/modules/colorPicker/ColorPicker.UITests/ColorPickerEndToEndTests.cs), drives the full E2E: 1. Navigate to the Color Picker page via the dashboard utilities stack 2. Toggle the module OFF, verify `PowerToys.ColorPickerUI` exits; toggle ON, verify it respawns 3. Read the activation shortcut from the page's `ShortcutControl` (`EditButton.HelpText`) 4. Clear clipboard, park cursor, send the chord 5. Wait for the picker overlay window 6. Read the displayed HEX from a hidden XAML automation peer (see below) 7. Left-click to capture; assert the clipboard value matches the peer's HEX 8. Wait for the editor window and assert the captured color appears in its tree **[`src/settings-ui/Settings.UITests/`](src/settings-ui/Settings.UITests/)** — `SettingsNavigationSmokeTests.NavigationItem_NavigatesWithoutCrashing` is one `[TestMethod]` parameterized with `[DynamicData]`, producing 31 discrete results — one per `NavigationViewItem` in [`ShellPage.xaml`](src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/SettingsXAML/Views/ShellPage.xaml). For each item: navigate, settle 250ms, assert `PowerToys.Settings` is still alive. Catches FailFast regressions in `ShellViewModel.Frame_NavigationFailed` that pure-logic unit tests can't reach (the failure path needs a `NavigationFailedEventArgs` which is a sealed WinRT projection). ### Product change **[`src/modules/colorPicker/ColorPickerUI/Views/MainView.xaml`](src/modules/colorPicker/ColorPickerUI/Views/MainView.xaml)** — adds a hidden `TextBlock` automation peer: ```xml <TextBlock x:Name="ColorHexAutomationPeer" AutomationProperties.AutomationId="ColorHexAutomationPeer" IsHitTestVisible="False" Opacity="0" Text="{Binding ColorText}" /> ``` The visible `ColorTextBlock` has `AutomationProperties.Name="{Binding ColorName}"`, which masks the HEX value in the UIA tree (you see "White" instead of `#FFFFFF`). This zero-impact peer mirrors `ColorText` so tests can read the actually-displayed HEX. `Opacity=0` + `IsHitTestVisible=False` keep it out of the visual layout and out of accessibility focus. ### Project wiring - [`PowerToys.slnx`](PowerToys.slnx) — registers `UITestAutomation.Next` under `/common/`, `ColorPicker.UITests` under `/modules/colorpicker/Tests/`, and `Settings.UITests` under `/settings-ui/Tests/`. Original `UITest-ColorPicker` stub csproj removed. - [`.github/actions/spell-check/expect.txt`](.github/actions/spell-check/expect.txt) — adds `winapp` / `winappcli`. ### Not in this PR - No pipeline changes. `winapp.exe` is expected to be pre-staged on the test agent image. If it's missing, `UITestBase` fails the first test with the install hint (`winget install Microsoft.winappcli`) rather than producing 30 opaque per-test errors. - No changes to the legacy `UITestAutomation` library or any of the existing `*.UITests` projects. ## Validation - All three projects build clean on `x64|Debug` (empty `build.<config>.<plat>.errors.log`): - `src/common/UITestAutomation.Next/` - `src/modules/colorPicker/ColorPicker.UITests/` - `src/settings-ui/Settings.UITests/` - Both tests run in Test Explorer / `dotnet test` via Microsoft.Testing.Platform (already enabled repo-wide in `Directory.Build.props`). - Local runs: ColorPicker E2E green; Settings smoke green across all 31 nav items. - `winapp 0.3.2` from `winget install Microsoft.winappcli`. ## Notes for reviewers - **`UseShellExecute = true`** in `SessionHelper.EnsureRunning` is intentional — `false` makes child processes inherit the test host's stdin/stdout/stderr handles, which keeps MTP/Test Explorer marking the run as "in progress" until the spawned PowerToys exits. - **Process-scope (`-a`) targeting** in the Settings smoke test handles single-instance handoff: the EXE you launch may exit with code 0 immediately after signalling an existing owner, so the alive check uses `Process.GetProcessesByName` rather than the launcher PID. - **AutomationId-only selectors** in the Settings smoke list keep the test localization-independent. Parent groups have `SelectsOnInvoked="False"` and only expand on click — `Element.Click` tries `InvokePattern → TogglePattern → SelectionItemPattern → ExpandCollapsePattern` so the same call works for both leaves and groups. - **Untitled-window discovery**: filtered `winapp ui list-windows -a <name>` returns windows that the unfiltered call drops (e.g. ColorPicker editor). `WindowsFinder.ListByApp` uses the filtered form. Reported upstream. ## Before Merge - Add the `winappcli` install step to the UI-test pipeline. |
