Malai,

There are two ways you could run the JUnit. Either as a normal Java
application, or running as an OSGi application. If the things you're
testing rely on OSGi for doing proper initialization and registration,
then you'll want to run it as JUnit Plugin Test. Other than how it's
invoked, there's no real significant difference.

Dear Ed

Thanks for your reply ... Now i am an Eclipse RCP Trainer and what i get
asked in al my trainings are ..how can we use Junit Plugin Test ...

Is it a misconception that it can be used for testing your plugins or rcp at
Unit Level ... And if it is not .. i would be really happy if i am provided
with an Example ... to check out the same.

Malai

This is not about a special test but it's a launch configuration.
Compare it to launching your RCP or plug-in where you need to use the
'Eclipse Application' or 'OSGi Framework' launch configuration. If you
write a test for the RCP or plug-in you could run it with those
launchers but then it would not be connected to the JUnit view. The
'JUnit Plug-in Test' launch configuration basically combines the normal
launcher with the ability to connect to the JUnit view, so that the test
results can be watched.
