Hi,
I wonder if there is a built-in solution in Eclipse that allows me to
programmatically launch a JUnit test -- without accessing any internal
methods.
I know about the ITestRunListener and about the JUnitCore interface/class,
but I cannot find any method to actively launch a JUnit test. So what I
did is that I have implemented my own LaunchDelegate which runs a JUnit
test (actually I just copied some of the internal classes of jdt.junit and
removed the things that I was not interested in). This approach does work,
but there are some drawbacks. First, I have to do my own "connection" (the
junit tests run in a different VM, so to communicate with eclipse, I have
to establish a "remote" connection via a PrintWriter/Reader to
communicate), second, I have to re-implement the ui instead of being able
to re-use it.
So, to sum it up: are there currently any possibilities to actively
(re-)run a JUnit test, or are any enhancements to the interface planned in
the future?
Thanks,
Philipp
