Wish to create own Test Generator [message #44264]

Hi,
I would like to create my own 'Test Generator..' plugin which is available
off the *.recmodel menu list.

Can anyone advise me of how to add my own generator? I've looked around
and found the HTTPRecorder class. But unsure what actually generates the
Java test code.

Any help appreciated.

Kind Regards
Anthony

Hi Anthony,

"Test Generation" consists of two steps:

1) converting from the recording file (.recmodel) to a testsuite
2) converting from the testsuite to generated Java code

For #1:

You want to extend the TestGenerator extension point. There is some doc for
this schema in the "org.eclipse.hyades.test.core" plugin, in TPTP 4.0 and
later.

An example of a class which extends TestGenerator is
org.eclipse.hyades.execution.testgen.http.Testgen. This is located (again
in TPTP 4.0 & later) in the org.eclipse.hyades.test.tools.core plugin.

If you wish to create a new testsuite type, also of interest will be the
org.eclipse.hyades.ui.typeDescriptions extension point.

For #2:

Look at the abstract class Generator (in o.e.h.test.tools.core) and the
examples HttpGenerator (in o.e.h.test.ui.core).and PluginJUnitGenerator (in
o.e.h.test.tools.core)

Note the the Java code is generated through JET templates. The eclipse.org
site has some useful docs & tutorials describing JET.

Hope this helps.
