Re: [m2e-users] Running single JUnit tests with maven in Eclipse

[Jeremie Bresson <Jeremie.Bresson@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks a lot for your many answers.

Maybe I can try to clarify my point:

Currently there is a "Run as > Maven test" (provided by the eclipse maven integration). You can invoke this on a project having the maven nature. As pointed by Igor Fedorenko, this is shortcut for "mvn test".

Currently there is an Eclipse "Run as > JUnit Test" (provided by eclipse jdt). This works great but is not the same as "mvn -Dtest=XxxxYyyyyTest#testAbc test" because Eclipse and maven do not run the tests the same way. (as pointed out by James Nord).

@Rafał: thanks for your pointer. I imagine, it will work, because it correspond to what can be achieve on the command line.

The feature I am looking for is like the current "Run as > JUnit Test" on a test class/method, the possibility to start maven: "Run as > Maven test (with the selected class/method as test parameter)". The test should be executed "the maven way" (I assume that it depends on the configurations in the pom).

A second step could be to collect the test result produced by maven and display them in the JUnit view in Eclipse. This step is a "nice to have".

I hopes it is clearer now.

Regards,

Jérémie.

Hi,

Perhaps I may be missing the point, but if I understood this correctly it is already there.

If you get into your test class, select the method name, open context menu

and click JUnit Test, only the selected method will run (in the run menu you

will see something like MyTestClass.myTestMethod after running it).

If I'm missing the point sorry for it :-)

Hi,

According to this stackoverflow question [1], it is possible to run a single test with maven (I am new to maven):
  mvn -Dtest=XxxxYyyyyTest#testAbc test

I am looking for the same function in Eclipse (I assume it could be implemented in m2e):

On a JUnit java file, in a maven project, I want a menu "Run As... > Maven JUnit Test"

The first approach is to start maven run the specific selected test class (and even test method).
A very good integration would display the test result in the JUnit view and allow to rerun a specific test.

* Do you know if such a function exists?
* Is there some interest for m2e (as enhancement bug) or should it be implemented in a separate plugin?

Side note: I had a quick look at the jdt code. There is a JunitLaunchConfigurationDelegate class (org.eclipse.jdt.junit.core) and an extension point.

Thanks a lot for your inputs.

Jeremie Bresson.
