How to use QTest::mouseClick with QAction

Question

I'm very new to Qt, and I need to simulate a click using the QTest Namespace and QTest::mouseClick. My problem is I would like to click a QMenu entry, defined as a QAction, but the mouseClick function doesn't allow me to pass this as an argument (only QWidgets or QWindows).

What could I do here?

Answer 1

You may use another way such direct triggers of your QAction's as far as you have them:

qAction->trigger();

This should have the same impact as mouse clicks in testing purposes.
