    24  * <h1>Operators package</h1>

    25  * Contains so called "operators".<br><br>

    26  * <i>Operator</i> is a <i>test-side representation</i> for a component. Each

    27  * particular operator class provides all the functionality to work with one

    28  * component type. For example {@code JButtonOperator} covers

    29  * {@code javax.swing.JButton}.<br><br>

    30  * Operators inheritance tree exactly matches component types inheritance:

    31  * {@code AbstractButton} extending {@code JComponent} means that

    32  * {@code AbstractBittonOperator} extends

    33  * {@code JComponentOperator}.<br><br>

    34  * Every operator provides, basicly, all the methods to reproduce user actions

    35  * which can be performed on a component type covered by operator.<br><br>

    36  * Every operator also provides <i>mapping</i> functionality: API to invoke

    37  * component method during the event queue. For example,

    38  * {@code AbstractButtonOperator} has {@code getText()} method which

    39  * simply invokes {@code AbstractButton.getText()} through the

    40  * queue.<br><br>
