Hi Mikhail,
The approach I have taken in other "tidied" modules has been to merge
all test methods for a given type into the one file containing a JUnit
testcase dedicated to that type. It sounds like it will be more
challenging to do this in maths for the reasons you mention.
Beyond getting the related tests into a single package structure I am
pretty neutral really on how we manage the contents of individual files.
If in some cases a merge looks set to create a single gigantic file
containing a very large number of test methods for a single type then
splitting the test case class into FooTest.java, FooTest2.java etc
sounds fine. Is that what you were suggesting ?
That is what I was talking about. At this point I can't say which way
looks better, I just have a concern about uniting some types of
files, like man-made and generated tests.
Thanks,
Mikhail
Best regards,
George
