Hello,
I'm currently developing a setup task for using a code versioning system used in my company.
Now that i have the basic functionality up and running, I am wondering about debugging and unit testing my setup task.
So the question is, how to execute/debug the setup task from my eclipse IDE without having to deploy it and execute the setup model from the installer, since this is very time consuming.
Regards,
Matthias

We use two approaches to debug/test things. Mostly it's all manual. The simplest is to do a debug launch of an Eclipse instance and run the tasks where, e.g., create the task in the workspace.setup and then do a perform. For more complex things, we do a local Maven/Tycho build to produce an update site with the tasks, and then launch the installer with a redirection to use the local update site. If the task don't run in the installer but in the launched IDE, we can do a remote debug of the launched application to debug the behavior of the task; this is the most complex and time consuming approach. We have most of those launchers committed so you can see how we debug the Oomph stuff...
