How to run testng as 'eclipse plugin' test [message #94526]

With Junit I could run my tests as plain Junit tests or as Junit Plugin
tests. However I'm trying to use the newer TestNG
(http://testng.org/doc/documentation-main.html and its eclipse plugin:
http://testng.org/doc/eclipse.html).

Unfortunately I can't figure out how to run the tests as plugin tests.
Is there a secret trick? Do I have to get the developers to implement
something more?

Please let me know and I will pass it along.
Cheers

I don't think this is the right newsgroup to post this question. You'll
need to contact a support group (if there is any) related to TestNG.

Thanks,
Ali Mehregani

Thanks for the reply - I already tried on the testng newsgroup. They
don't do plugin development and don't have an idea what I'm talking about.

I was hoping that someone who knew what was done on JUnit or what they
had to hook into would be here.

Cheers

Hi Mark,
As Ali has mentioned, TPTP does not support TestNG. From a cursory
look, they use their own launch configuration meaning you can only run the
TestNG tests using this type of execution. The TestNG launch configuration
handles running the tests in an instance of a JVM and capturing the
results. The TestNG project (or some other provider) would need to provide
the function to run the tests in an instance of Eclipse to run your tests as
plug-in tests. This is the approach the JDT and TPTP uses for JUnit plug-in
testing.
