Setup for AssertJ Swing - testing GUI

I am trying to test the GUI of a banking system application, but in the TestLogin class I have an error 'Cannot resolve constructor 'FrameFixture(GUI.Login)'. I tried to extend the SampleFrame class in the Login class, but IntelliJ can't find dependencies. What can I do to fix this?
public class TestLogin {
protected FrameFixture window;
#BeforeClass
public static void setUpOnce() {
FailOnThreadViolationRepaintManager.install();
}
#Before
public void setUp() {
Login frame = GuiActionRunner.execute(() -> new Login());
window = new FrameFixture(frame); //Cannot resolve constructor 'FrameFixture(GUI.Login)
window.show();
}
#Test
public void test() {}
#After
public void tearDown() {
window.cleanUp();
}
}
Here is the Login class:
package GUI;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.JPasswordField;
import java.awt.Font;
import javax.swing.JTextField;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
public class Login{
public JFrame frame;
private JTextField textField;
private JPasswordField textField_1;
/**
* Create the application.
*/
public Login() {
initialize();
}
/**
* Initialize the contents of the frame.
*/
private void initialize() {
frame = new JFrame();
frame.setBounds(100, 100, 450, 300);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setTitle("Banking System");
frame.getContentPane().setLayout(null);
JLabel label = new JLabel("Banking System");
label.setFont(new Font("Tahoma", Font.BOLD, 17));
label.setBounds(147, 11, 151, 41);
frame.getContentPane().add(label);
JLabel lblLoginScreen = new JLabel("Login Screen");
lblLoginScreen.setFont(new Font("Tahoma", Font.PLAIN, 13));
lblLoginScreen.setBounds(170, 63, 101, 23);
frame.getContentPane().add(lblLoginScreen);
JLabel lblUsername = new JLabel("Username:");
lblUsername.setFont(new Font("Tahoma", Font.PLAIN, 12));
lblUsername.setBounds(55, 119, 64, 23);
frame.getContentPane().add(lblUsername);
JLabel lblPassword = new JLabel("Password:");
lblPassword.setFont(new Font("Tahoma", Font.PLAIN, 12));
lblPassword.setBounds(55, 159, 64, 23);
frame.getContentPane().add(lblPassword);
textField = new JTextField();
textField.setBounds(130, 121, 86, 20);
frame.getContentPane().add(textField);
textField.setColumns(10);
textField.setText("admin");
textField_1 = new JPasswordField();
textField_1.setBounds(130, 161, 86, 20);
frame.getContentPane().add(textField_1);
textField_1.setColumns(10);
JButton btnLogin = new JButton("Login");
btnLogin.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
String user,pass;
textField.setText("admin");
user="admin";
pass=textField_1.getText();
if((user.equals("admin")&&(pass.equals("admin"))))
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame.getComponent(0), "Login Successfully");
frame.setVisible(false);
GUIForm.menu.setVisible(true);
}
else
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame.getComponent(0), "Login Failed");
}
}
});
btnLogin.setBounds(260, 138, 89, 23);
frame.getContentPane().add(btnLogin);
}
}

Try
public class TestLogin extends AssertJSwingJUnitTestCase {
private FrameFixture window;
#Override
protected void onSetUp() {
Login frame = GuiActionRunner.execute(() -> new Login());
window = new FrameFixture(robot(), frame);
window.show();
}
#Test
public void test(){
}
#Override
protected void onTearDown () {
window.cleanUp();
}
}
And in the Login class add
public class Login extends JFrame

Looking to validate both textField and comboBox in Java Swing GUI

Please be gentle, this is my first time working with Swing and GUI's.
My problem/question:
I have written some code using Java Swing GUI. The validation portion of my code will only recognize if the textField is incorrectly filled out and ignores if the comboBoxes are left empty. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here? My goal is to make sure that all fields are filled out when the user hits submit. Here is my code:

How to store string or integer in java.swing JTextField?

Hello I am working on this project to store student names and record their grades. I have the entire program mapped out and all I need to do now is record the integers and strings from the user input and call it from different classes. I am having trouble with this. Do I use an array? How do I call from another class? Thank you.

Is it something along the lines of this?
studentNameTextField = new JTextField("Enter here");
String stdname = studentNameTextField.getText();
I know this would be storing it but how do I call that in a different class so I can make it appear on a different Frame?
Update: Okay so I've done this
Student frame = new Student();
String stdname = frame.studentNameTextField.getText();
JLabel addgradesLabel = new JLabel("Add grades for" + frame.studentNameTextField);
addgradesLabel.setBounds(139, 34, 167, 29);
contentPane.add(addgradesLabel);
And it's still not working. I believe I'm not implementing this correctly. I'm trying to title the label with what the user inputs for the name. So it would but "Add grades for" + stdname But it's not calling it correctly. How can I fix this?
Here is my code from the AddStudentName class
studentNameTextField = new JTextField();
studentNameTextField.setBounds(130, 133, 194, 26);
contentPane.add(studentNameTextField);
studentNameTextField.setColumns(10);
JButton continueButton = new JButton("Continue");
continueButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent a) {
if(continueButton.isEnabled()){
Student.this.dispose();
Student studentScreen = new Student();
studentScreen.dispose();
AddGrades addGradesScreen = new AddGrades();
addGradesScreen.setVisible(true);
}
}
});
What should I add here to save the input that the user is inputting into the JTextField? Thanks for the help

I'm trying to take the input from the JTextField
JTextField studentNameTextField = new JTextField();
and set it on the label
JLabel addgradesLabel = new JLabel("Add grades for" + stdname);
Where stdname would be the user input from the JTextField.
Now I'm getting errors from
public static void main(String[] args) {
AddGrades frame = new AddGrades();
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
AddGrades frame = new AddGrades();
frame.setVisible(true);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
AddGrades frame = new AddGrades(); gives me error Add argument to match AddGrades(String)
The constructor AddGrades() is undefined

Edit: The best way to do this is to pass an argument to your newly created AddGrades class. See below:
public AddGrades(String stdname) {
JLabel addgradesLabel = new JLabel("Add grades for " + stdname);
}
You will need to modify your code to pass a string to your AddGrades class wherever you create it:
JButton continueButton = new JButton("Continue");
continueButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent a) {
if(continueButton.isEnabled()){
Student studentScreen = new Student();
studentScreen.dispose();
AddGrades addGradesScreen = new AddGrades(studentNameTextField.getText());
addGradesScreen.setVisible(true);
}
}
});
That worked for me - I downloaded your code and tested it.

JSpinner or JFormattedTextField would be my first thought, but if you can't do that then you could use Integer.parseInt to parse a String to int and a NumberFormat to format the numbers to Strings
Maybe have a look at How to Use Spinners and How to Use Formatted Text Fields for starters
I know this would be storing it but how do I call that in a different class so I can make it appear on a different JFrame?
That's a open question with little context. You might use some kind of "model" which represented one or more Student values; you might use a Observer Pattern to allow the editor to generate events to interested parties which would tell them that something has changed; you might use a Model-View-Controller; you might use a modal dialog and when it's closed, ask the editor for the values via getters.
Have a look at How to Make Dialogs for more details
One of things you want to keep in mind is "responsibility" and "encapsulation". You don't want outside parties to have uncontrolled access into your editor or model, this could allow them to modify the state in an uncontrolled way leading to inconsistencies in your data or UI.
You need to decide who is actually responsible for modifying the state of the model. There's no "right" answer, for example, you could have the editor either be capable of editing existing student objects or creating new ones based on how it's configured, equally, you could also have the editor be "dumb" and simply use setters to setup the editor and getters to get the values.
There are lots of options available to you, which you would use would be based on the context in which you want to use it. My gut feeling is start with an observer pattern and a modal dialog.

You can use

to make a JFrame (form) visible.

AWT-EventQueue-0" StackOverflowError

Afternoon all, i have a problem with some JFrame code, this JFrame is started when the user presses "New User", and whenever they do so, i get:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.StackOverflowError

regBtn.setBounds(10, 86, 215, 23);
contentPane.add(regBtn);
}

I know this error is caused by an infinite loop, or something. but i have a boolean in place to stop it from infinitely running. This code was working about 20mins ago, and i haven't changed the first part of the constructor since i created the code.
Any ideas? Thanks..

You create a new Object in the line private Registration reg = new Registration();.
You should create this object in the consturctor.

The problem at that line:
private Registration reg = new Registration();
You get in a infinite loop and then stack overflow.
