How to relaunch a single test within Eclipse [message #41224]

Hi all,

First of all, I've been using SWTBot more and more and I find it really
usefull for my UI tests. I want to says congrats to Ketan Padegaonkar
and to the other contributers I've seen so far. I'm getting a bigger
test base by the day.

But, as I'm getting more test case, I'm getting more failures! I'm also
a user of JUnit inside Eclipse and I find it really useful that in the
JUnit view I can right-click on a single test and rerun only that test
or the tests that failed (with the Rerun Test - Failures First button).
I was wondering if that could be possible with my SWTBot test case, it
could really speed up the rerunning of failed tests.

I did a first look at how JUnit does that or if SWTBot could use an
extension point of org.eclipse.jdt.junit but I didn't have any luck up
to now...

Thanks again!
P

Hmm... For some reasons I'm unable to click on the 'rerun tests --
failures first' button because it's disabled! This seems to be because
eclipse does not seem to support that functionality with junit4.

Copying the JDT newsgroup for any inputs they may have.

Further investigation reveals that the culprit is indeed the JUnit
View[1]'s updateRerunFailedFirstAction() method. Is there a reason why
rerun failed tests is not supported with junit4, there's a class called
FailuresFirstPrioritizer but that's only used with junit3 and not junit4.
