[xtext] testing the parser [message #384429] Sun, 03 August 2008 09:29 Go to next message

Hi

I've just started to take a look at this technology which looks really
cool, but I was wondering how to test the parser (I mean unit tests)...

thanks in advance
Lorenzo

public void testSimple() throws Exception {
InputStream in = new StringInputStream("instance (of) { my dsl }");
Node rootNode = new XtextParser(model).getRootNode();
EObject modelElement = rootNode.getModelElement();
assert(....)
}

Note that it is a good idea to use EMF's generator in order to have
static types instead of using EMF's refelection layer for assertions.

mhh... sorry Sven, but I'm not sure I understand this part... I should
not use EObject right? Then what should I use?

thanks
