Add FestAssert to the TP ------------------------ Key: JBIDE-12972 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12972 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: target-platform Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Beta1 Reporter: Xavier Coulon Assignee: Xavier Coulon Priority: Minor Fix For: 4.2.x It would be great if we could use in our tests. We would have to add it to our target platform (TP) for our plugins to use it. Reason: FestAssert provides us with a Fluent API to write test assertions.

Source: https://github.com/alexruiz/fest-assert-1.x Affected projects: LiveReload for now, JAX-RS in the future Required in devstudio: No for now (if LiveReload is considered incubation) Type of dependency: testing List of bundles added/removed: fest-assert, fest-util Fest-assert provides a fluent API to perform asertions in JUnit tests. It is also nice to use when the objects to tests are collections. To convince you of the interest of fest-assert, here are a few syntax examples: - In LiveReload-test plugin: {code} assertThat(new String(modifiedContent)).doesNotContain(addition + "</body>"); {code} - a more complete example of usage in openShift-java-client (not an Eclipse plugin, though, but it gives an idea of the chained assertions that can be performed) {code} assertThat(new GearGroupsAssert(gearGroups)) .assertGroup(0).hasUUID().hasGears() .assertGear(0).hasId().hasState(); {code} - in case of assertion failure on such a statement: {code} Assertions.assertThat(commands).hasSize(2); {code} the exception message will look like this: {code} java.lang.AssertionError: expected size:<2> but was:<1> for <['{"command":"reload","path":null,"liveCSS":true}']> at org.fest.assertions.Fail.failure(Fail.java:228) at org.fest.assertions.Assert.failure(Assert.java:149) at org.fest.assertions.GroupAssert.hasSize(GroupAssert.java:89) at org.jboss.tools.livereload.internal.service.LiveReloadCommandGeneratorTestCase.shouldGenerateCommandForIndexHtmlFileAfterSingleChange(LiveReloadCommandGeneratorTestCase.java:45) at ... {code} See more examples here: http://code.google.com/p/fest/#Fluent_Assertions
