Clicking on failures is probably the main reason to integrate QTestLib with the IDE.
Filtering different types of test results and generating a stub implementation for a tested class would be other features of this plugin. There's Entry 254483 in Task Tracker that mentions this feature. It doesn't have neither priority nor scheduling assigned though...

If you are talking about qtcrea...@nokia team, it makes a lot of sense. But that's why you guys opened development to outside world, right? So that we can help you improve already great product. So, back to qtestlibplugin: After bringing it back from the dead, I realized that the architecture of this plugin might need adjustment: Right now it has its own type of output "Test Results" (just like "Build Issues", "Application Output" and 2 more). But, as this picture shows, there's not much space for different types of output: [cid:image001.jpg@01CA5638.3B794100] Besides it doesn't make much sense to "pollute" IDE's screen with "Test Results" button and list entry for applications that have nothing to do with QTestLib. It looks like there should be as little presence for this plugin as possible in the IDE's GUI. Ideally, this plugin should show itself only if output of a program is in QTestLib format. Thus this plugin really provides a different format of "Application Output", not a different output pane. So proposed adjustment to this plugin is to be able to have several formats of "Application Output". By default it's "raw" output, with the ability to switch to a different format. In case of qtestlibplugin it can be "test results" and "benchmark results" formats. Other plugins could have/add their own formats. What do you guys think?

The only "maybe" still useful parts of the code in the plugin is probably the interaction/parsing of the QTestLib output. ++ Eike > Alex > > On Tuesday 20 October 2009 17:47:42 ext Bravo.Alex wrote: > > I'm not very successful in finding any info about plugin_qtestlib. > > There's not many comments in the source code either. > > > > plugins.pro<http://plugins.pro> says this: > > plugin_qtestlib \ # this seems to be dead > > > > The source tree on gitorious.org<http://gitorious.org> is missing > QTestLibPlugin.pluginspec for > > it. > > > > Does anybody know what it was supposed to do? > It's dead and the code probably is not very useful anymore either. > > daniel > > <ATT00001..txt> -- Eike Ziller Software Engineer Nokia, Qt Development Frameworks Phone +49 (0)30 6392 3255 Fax +49 (0)30 6392 3256 E-mail eike.zil...@nokia.com<mailto:eike.zil...@nokia.com> _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com<mailto:Qt-creator@trolltech.com> http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com<mailto:Qt-creator@trolltech.com> http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
