Swordfish Documentation: Running IDE Integration Tests

Running Integration tests inside the IDE

This section contains instructions on setting configuring the Swordfish Target Platform and run configurations for running / debugging integration tests inside the Eclipse IDE.
For basic information configuring the Swordfish Target Platform, see Running Target Platform.

Prerequisites

• Eclipse Galileo RC4 or newer
• JDK 1.6.* as run time for tests (due to run time requirements in some Eclipse bundles) must be configured as available JRE (JDK 1.5 may still be the default)

Preparing target platform for testing

1. Please refer to the basic configuration of the target platform as shown in Running Target Platform.
2. Go to the platform location of the target platform and enable all bundles in this location.
3. Press "Add..." and create an "Installation" that points to ${eclipse_home}
4. Press "Finish" to save your target platform configuration and make sure it is selected as active platform.

Creating and starting a run or debug configuration

1. Make sure that the sample projects in your workspace are closed. Usually also the third party projects should be closed.
2. Create a new run configuration for your integration test class.
3. Test tab: select JUnit4 as test runner.
4. Main tab:
   • Check to clear only logs stored in the workspace.
   • Select "Run an application" and choose "No application - Headless mode"
   • Select "Runtime JRE" and choose "JVM 1.6.0"
5. Arguments tab: Should contain the configuration as defined in the target platform (On creation of a run configuration Eclipse copies the entries from the target platform)
6. Plug-ins tab: For "Launch with" the selection has to be "All workspace and enabled target plug-ins".
7. Depending on the configuration type press the button "Run" or "Debug" to launch the test execution.
