Grammar and Validation unit_testing [message #1236949]

Dear all,

I want to test my xText grammar and the related validator.
Therefor I've found the very good tutorial on this URL: http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/xtext-utils/wiki/Unit_Testing
and implemented it for my grammar.

For me it is very important to test the validator for my language.
In case I have a test abstact looking like this:

public class CalculationGrammarTest extends XtextTest {
	private static final String warningFile = "calculationModel2.calculation";
	private static final String path = "D:\\abc\\resources\\ModelFileTest\\"


	public CalculationGrammarTest() {
		super(path);
	}
	
	@Test
	public void warningCalculationTest() {
		testFile(warningFile);
	}
	
	@Test
	public void warningCalculationTest2() {
		testFile(warningFile);
        }
}

I've also changed something in XtextTest.java. The changed modules are:

if (!resourceRoot.contains(":\\")) {

in the constructor and I'm using the method

URI.createFileURI

instead of URI.createURI.

The validator is called in warningCalculationTest, but NOT in warningCalculationTest2. Has anyone an idea why this strange behavior happens? I need the validator in every testcase.

I'm looking forward for your reply!
Best regards, Juliane

Hi,

i actually cannot reproduce that.
maybe it has todo with your changes regarding absolute paths.

here is my test that works fine


@RunWith(XtextRunner2.class)
@InjectWith(MyDslInjectorProvider.class)
public class CalculationGrammarTest extends XtextTest {
	private static final String warningFile = "test.mydsl8";
	private static final String noWarningFile = "test2.mydsl8";
	private static final String path = "model";


	public CalculationGrammarTest() {
		super(path);
	}
	
	@Test
	public void warningCalculationTest() {
		testFile(warningFile);
		assertConstraints(
				  issues.warningsOnly()
				        .inLine(1)
				        .oneOfThemContains("Name should start")
				);
	}
	
	@Test
	public void warningCalculationTest2() {
		testFile(warningFile);
		assertConstraints(
				  issues.warningsOnly()
				        .inLine(1)
				        .oneOfThemContains("Name should start")
				);
        }
	
	@Test
	public void warningCalculationTest3() {
		testFile(noWarningFile);
	}
}
