At what point is the text duplicated?  What are you listening to in  
order to duplicate the text?  Do you copy each character as it is  
typed, or when the user types "Enter"?

No, it's identical, except for keys for which the appropriate  
keystrokes can't be determined.  For such keys, key down/up events  
won't be generated, only key typed events.

Again, it depends on what events you're listening to in order to  
duplicate the text.

Re: [abbot - Developers] launch abbot scripts on a server when commit

You set it up as you would any other automated JUnit test suite.   
However, you need to ensure that the server has a workable user  
display (you can use a dedicated display in X11, a logged in user in  
OSX; in windows I think the only option is to give the running service  
access to the desktop, otherwise the tests you'll be able to run will  
be limited).

Re: [abbot - Developers] launch abbot scripts on a server when commit

At our firm, we use Buildbot (http://buildbot.net/) to do automated
testing for every checkin.  We were able to use buildbot to launch the
Abbot tests on a Windows machine, and it's been working pretty well.

You pretty much need a dedicated test machine for this, as no other
GUI processes can run while Abbot is testing.

Re: [abbot - Help] Issue with JTextTester.actionEnterText

The event UI code is listening to duplicate the text is "keyReleased", is this the reason?

Re: [abbot - Help] Issue with JTextTester.actionEnterText

Yes.  Abbot will only generate key released events for those  
characters it knows from its keymap.  Abbot's language-specific  
keymaps tell it which keys correspond to which characters.

You might consider listening to the text component document instead.
