AgentTester agent The Intelligent Room/HAL Project MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Cambridge, MA AgentTester is an agent which allows graphical interaction with the agent system in terms of relying on agents and invoking associated methods. This file contains: AgentTesterImpl -- agent that spawns AgentTesterFrame and is told by the AgentTesterFrame using the AgentTesterCommunication interface to open an MethodList window. AgentTesterCommunication - package access class so that AgentTesterFrame can tell AgentTesterImpl that a MethodList window has been requested AgentTesterFrame -- Start-up window that requests a string agent name, then hands it to AgentTesterImpl to rely on it and start it up with a MethodList InfoDialog -- modal dialog for presenting a few errors... MethodList -- window containing all the methods in an instantiated Agent so that they can be run. January, 1998 -- jjlilley, brenton
