[jbosstools-dev] Eclipse target platform features

Please make sure tests in jbosstools svn does not reference that as the default option to run against!

When I tried to use just the plugin references I've ended up with maybe 20 references half of them referenced some deep down JEE eclipse plugins the tests should really not care about.

I guess you are talking about full product tests not unit test- then use the individual features we have and list them.

No, those are at the wrong level. They are the "product" definitions from eclipse epp packages.
