Note that SWTBot works on a non-UI thread by default to avoid deadlock with modal dialogs and other user interface actions. If the tests need to interact with specific SWT widgets, it is necessary to invoke a Runnable via the UI thread.
To make this easier, the SWTBot framework has several helper methods that can provide a facade of the workspace, including the ability to click on buttons and show menus.
