Re: [cbi-dev] Common "Unit Test Infrastructure"?

[Igor Fedorenko <igor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I expect most cbi-enabled projects outside of Eclipse Platform to use
Tycho built-it support for running junit and junit4 tests. You will
still need to know where to find downstream components you want to test,
but running the tests is a standard "mvn ..." command familiar to any
maven user.

For example, to run m2e tests one needs to clone repository from github
and [1] and execute "m2e integration-test -Puts,its". It is possible to
tell the build to use different Eclipse and/or m2e version with -D
invocation parameter, and this all is well integrated in Hudson too.
