I am trying to use QTest to do some testing. I have a QListWidget that I would like to click on to get a selection. But after the click, nothing is selected. Does anyone have any ideas?

Here is my test class

void TestGui::List() {
    TestDialog dlg;
    dlg.show ();

    // Click on the centre of the second object
    QListWidget *list = dlg.ListWidget ();
    QListWidgetItem *item = list->item ( 1 );
    QRect rect = list->visualItemRect ( item );
    QTest::mouseClick ( list, Qt::LeftButton, 0, rect.center() );

    // Check if something was selected
    QCOMPARE ( list->currentRow (), 1 );
    QVERIFY ( list->currentItem () != NULL );
    QCOMPARE ( list->currentItem ()->text (), QString ( "Two" ) );
}

Below is the testing class 

class TestGui: public QObject {
    Q_OBJECT

private slots:
    void List();
};

And here is the TestDialog class used to display the problem

class TestDialog : public QDialog {
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    TestDialog ( QWidget *parent = NULL )
    : QDialog ( parent, Qt::CustomizeWindowHint | Qt::WindowCloseButtonHint ) {
        QVBoxLayout *layout = new QVBoxLayout ( this );

        m_list = new QListWidget ( this );
        m_list->addItem ( "One" );
        m_list->addItem ( "Two" );
        m_list->addItem ( "Three" );
        m_list->addItem ( "Four" );
        layout->addWidget ( m_list );

        QPushButton *close_button = new QPushButton( "Close" );
        connect ( close_button, SIGNAL ( clicked () ), this, SLOT ( close () ) );
        layout->addWidget ( close_button );

        setWindowTitle( "Test" );
    }

    QListWidget *ListWidget ( void ) {
        return m_list;
    };

private:
    QListWidget *m_list;

}; // TestDialog

After some more thought, it turns out that the click needs to be on the view widget and not the list itself. So the line should look like this

QTest::mouseClick ( list->viewport (), Qt::LeftButton, 0, rect.center() );

Thanks
