We have Web Application which interacts with Windows base desktop applications.Can Protractor be used to automate UI workflows for desktop application as well?
Protractor is nothing but a framework built on top of webdriver js to automate angular js web applications.It uses API's available in selenium jar file to communicate with the browser. Selenium doesn't have support to automate desktop applictions,hence protractor also cannot be used to automate desktop application.
It is possible to use RobotJs code within Protractor to control

We are doing a Selenium based web application testing. We have a requirement to test the application in different browsers.
The requirement is also use browsers from cloud applications like crossbrowser testing.(https://crossbrowsertesting.com/). We are not getting enough idea how to implement and execute our script within crossbrowser tool.
We have very good Automation framework already in place which is in java/selenium to verify our web application but now our site will be migrated to Angular and we do not want to move to protractor. So shall we use selenium for Angular app ?
You can use selenium for Angular app but it is more suitable to use the protractor for Angular app testing, as it is built in framework for the Angular app.
I have a gwt developed website that already runs 100% client-side (by which I mean no server-side javascript is used)
As one of the options for windows universal app development is javascript, is it possible to somehow turn a online gwt app into a offline uwp one?
I am aware there are solutions to package websites together with browser+installer, but if windows can run js 'natively' now (I assume via Edge) it seems a better route.
You can use UWP Javascript project from Visual Studio. This project allows you to add any HTML/CS/JS requires files. You can also use the Hosted model, where your files are downloaded from a URL (but then the app will require connectivity).
I've not tried the scenario, but I don't see any impediments, it should work.
I am in flux for integrating an automated GUI testing with my build system. My GUI application is developed in GWT. I use HUDSON as my automated build system. I would like to perform sanity test of my application. As I understand, the entire test setup will have following steps.
Build and deploy the application in predefined application server. In my case, it would be create and install the application in Android emulator.
Start/Launch the application.
Perform pre-defined user actions(UI Test cases) and validate them.
Somehow include validations for different browsers. I am really not sure how can I do this.
Generate report of test cases performed.
I am not posting the details of application as I think this detail will not make any difference in the approach. Can somebody guide me using past experience if this is possible and if it is then to what extent. The best UI automation tool (preferably open source) which can fit easily here.
We use TeamCity as build server for a GWT application. We just use it as a build server with two tasks: compile sources into Javascript, and deply war file to Tomcat application server. Although I didn't manually set it up yet, I believe it's possible to add a third task for UI testing using Selenium (which we used for another JSF web application testing).
A fairly good example of using Selenium automated testing is RichFaces. If you download its source code package, it includes hundreds of UI-testnig codes written generated by Selenium.
I have created a solution that comprise of a WPF application and a mobile device application. What I am trying to figure out is how to facilitate the installation of the mobile application.
When I publish and install the WPF desktop application it creates a start menu folder for the application. Optimally I would like to add the mobile application .msi to this menu but I'm not sure if this is supported by ClickOnce.
Any advice or guidance would be most hopeful.
I suggest looking at Inno Setup. Its a free installer for windows applications and has a simple scripting/wizard process. It'll provide this and all the normal installer functions (install location, start menu, desktop icon etc). It also provides an uninstaller
