the keyboard_test script uses gtk, and it needs to be fixed to work with pygi / gtk3. I see some conversion work was already done, but it's apparently not complete . To observe the crash simply run:

/usr/share/checkbox/scripts/keyboard_test

Setting as triaged, importance medium per "moderate impact in a core application".

Thanks!

This bug was fixed in the package checkbox - 0.12.4

---------------
checkbox (0.12.4) oneiric; urgency=low

  New upstream release (LP: #824180):

  [Brendan Donegan]
  * Refactored job definition files.
  * Fixed dependencies and test naming.
  * Added Online CPU before/after suspend test.
  * Automated wireless tests.
  * Removed redundant sru_suite.txt, updated dependencies accordingly.
  * Automated bluetooth_obex tests.

  [Daniel Manrique]
  * Further improvements to make frontend/backend communication more reliable.
    Prevents stuck backends, failure to close the GUI due to lack of reply
    from the backend, and test specifying "user" not being run.
  * scripts/keyboard_test modified to account for pygi-related GTK API
    changes. (LP: #804369)
  * scripts/sleep_test: improve handling of NetworkManager DBus API
    changes. (LP: #808423)
  * scripts/cdimage_resource: properly handle releases with "LTS" in their
    name (LP: #814085)
  * Updated minimum_resolution test as per latest system requirements, leaving
    just one unified test. (LP: #767166)

  [Javier Collado]
  * Checkbox exits with EX_NOINPUT if a whitelist or blacklist file is
    specified and cannot be found.
  * Deselect a test suite automatically when none of its children is selected,
    in the GTK interface. (LP: #651878)
  * Make the "Next" button the default action when Enter is pressed, to
    streamline testing with the GTK interface.

  [Marc Tardif]
  * Fixed udevam not being found because /sbin not in PATH (LP: #597305)
  * Fixed hardware attachments for udev and dmi (LP: #822682)

  [Sylvain Pineau]
  * Expose the message store to other plugins, via firing an expose-msgstore
    event.

  [Andrew Faulkner]
  * Fix description for nautilus_file_create job (LP: #821141)

  [Kenneth Wimer]
  * New header image that follows brand guidelines (LP: #554202)
