Simulate mouse click using Qt Test Lib

You have several ways to simulate mouse events in a Qt application. First, you can create and post mouse events using native functions like:

QMouseEvent eve(...);

qApp->sendEvent(this , &eve);

Second, in QWebView, you can emulate the mouse action using javascript.

Third, you can use QTest lib for mouse emulation. The official tutorial is good. But you should include the correct include headers:

#include <QtTest/QtTest>
#include <qtest_widgets.h>

Just include <QtTest/QtTest> is not enough, you may get the following errors:

error: ‘mouseClick’ is not a member of ‘QTest’

error: ‘keyClicks’ is not a member of ‘QTest’

Note that QTest is a namespace, not a class.

The include directories should have …mingw482_32\include\QtTest, and also you should add “-lQt5Test” to your compiling command.
