[jbosstools-dev] Re: waaay to many jars in junittests

Another example of why our unittests should not have stuff in them that is unrelated to what they are actually testing: Running HtmlAllTest today gives us the following error in all 50 tests: *** ERROR ***: Sun Jan 27 10:23:18 CET 2008 Java Model Exception: Core Exception [code 0] Runtime JBoss 4.2 Runtime does not exist. This classpath container cannot be initialized. at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModelManager.initializeContainer(JavaModelManager.java:2242) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModelManager.getClasspathContainer(JavaModelManager.java:1546) at org.eclipse.jdt.core.JavaCore.getClasspathContainer(JavaCore.java:1571) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaProject.resolveClasspath(JavaProject.java:2558) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaProject.getResolvedClasspath(JavaProject.java:1873) at org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.internal.common.classpath.J2EEComponentClasspathContainer.update(J2EEComponentClasspathContainer.java:203) at org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.internal.common.classpath.J2EEComponentClasspathContainer.getClasspathEntries(J2EEComponentClasspathContainer.java:316) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModelManager.containerPutIfInitializingWithSameEntries(JavaModelManager.java:547) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.SetContainerOperation.executeOperation(SetContainerOperation.java:49) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModelOperation.run(JavaModelOperation.java:720) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModelOperation.runOperation(JavaModelOperation.java:780) The error occurs because of a change in how our classpathcontainer for a runtime are handling that the runtime is not there. So what is wrong with this ? Isn't it great we found out that the new classpathcontainer handling is breaking our stuff ? Well no, since the new classpathcontainer is probably correct and if the unittests were actually dependent on having a JBoss runtime why aren't they creating one ? Why are the test for the visual editor html templates failing because some totally unrelated server runtime is not there ? This should not happen. It is only happening because the used test project was blindly added with no consideration over what is the actual things we want to test and what is the exact minimal requirements for the function to work! The same issue actually exists for the usage of the JRE_CONTAINER: <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER/org.eclipse.jdt.internal.debug.ui.launcher.StandardVMType/jdk1.5.0_13"/> Who says that the installed jdk would be jdk1.5.0_13 ? Please remember that when updating and writing tests. Thanks! p.s. the new classpathcontainer needs unittests too but that is another issue. /max >>Test project is cut up to 3 files. >>Studio have all the taglibs needed to support this kind of CA. >>Victor > > Great, that's what i'm talking about!
