[udig-devel] testing with plugin...

[Jody Garnett <jgarnett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Documentation seems very thing on the ground ... Richard could you pass 
this onto the newsgroups:

running into dificulties understand the plug-in dependency isses 
involved in getting junit test for plug-in development to work.

We have two plug-ins:
net.refractions.udig.registry
net.refractions.udig.registry.test

Where net.refractions.udig.registry.test depends on:
- net.refractions.udig.registry
- net.refractions.udig.libs
- org.eclipse.core.resources
- org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime
- org.eclipse.ui

We constructed this list based on 
http://today.java.net/today/2004/02/02/ch12Eclipse.pdf in particular:

Run a test from this plugin using "Run" / "JUnit Plug-in Test" results in:

Launch Error: Could not launch the configuration. Details are in the 
log. Would you like to open it?

And then the actual log:
