JUnit Tests w/ no Class to Test [message #146997] Tue, 02 March 2004 11:49 Go to next message

I was following a tutorial at http://www.onjava.com/lpt/a/4524, regarding
using JUnit with Eclipse. The article wants the creation of the test
before the class exists, according to XP practices. My version of Eclipse
won't allow that. That's fine, I can get around that easily.

Is this a new feature? Is this a desired feature?

regards,
Geoff

It will allow it. Just create a class and make it extend
junit.framework.TestCase. It won't create a stub for you because there
is nothing to base the stub on, that's all. Personally, I don't find the
stub generation to be that helpful anyway. One other way of working you
might consider is, if you are using interfaces, gen the interface,
create an implementer (it will put in the methods you have to provide),
then make the unit test from that stub. (That said, I personally don't
like the practice of having an interface for every single class.)

The New Test Case wizard was broken in the last integration build
( see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=53500 ).

If you want to generate a TestCase on an non-existing class, just leave the
field "Class to test" empty. If that class is not there yet, the wizard
cannot possibly know what stubs to generate.

P.S. Saying "In I200403xx" instead of "My version" is always informative;-)
