Andreas Korneliussen updated DERBY-918: --------------------------------------- Attachment: DERBY-918.diff Kristian, thanks for pointing the issue with the code in the comment. I have removed it. > introduce a new test type to run junit tests from the current harness > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-918 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-918 > Project: Derby > Type: Improvement > Components: Test > Environment: All > Reporter: Andreas Korneliussen > Assignee: Andreas Korneliussen > Attachments: DERBY-918.diff, DERBY-918.stat > > It seems to me that for including a new JUnit test into i.e derby-all we need > to make a new java class with a main() method, which parses a command line > and set up the testsuite and run it, just like any java program. Basically we > are running the junit tests as test type "java". > Instead of having to do this for every junit test going into a derby test > suite, I would propose a different strategy. > I propose to introduce a new test type called "junit" (current test types > are: sql,sql2,unit,java,multi,demo - unit is not junit) > Then you can use: > java org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.harness.RunTest > <TestCaseClassName>.junit > to run a Junit test - instead of: > java org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.harness.RunTest > <AnotherClassWithMainMethod>.java > When starting a test of type junit, the RunTest class may simply use the > junit.textui.TestRunner class, which has a main method which takes a TestCase > class name as parameter. The junit.textui.TestRunner runs the tests defined > by the suite() method of the TestCase class. > I think this strategy will make it easier to integrate new JUnit tests into > the current test suites, since it save you the trouble of creating a java > class with a main method for every test. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
