Hi all, I recently learned about this Eclipse plugin: http://pag.csail.mit.edu/continuoustesting/ The idea of this plugin is to use idle cycles to run your unit testcases - as soon as you finish a change, your unit testcases would be executed (perhaps just the ones for that class) to give you instant feedback on any bug you might have introduced.
I was thinking on how to implement that for Emacs/JDEE. Perhaps an extension or hook for flymake could be used, together with a call to jde-eval - once we know the class is syntatically correct, we trigger the execution of the testcases. Or maybe a hook into semantics, since it also seems to do work in the background now. What do you think? Any ideas? /Nascif
