Hi guys,<br>
<br>
I've updated all testcases on master to use JUnit 4 style<br>
(except for drools-eclipse and the non-active parts of drools-grid).<br>
The main reason is so we now let hudson report how many testcases
are ignored (annoted with @Ignore instead of disabled).<br>
<br>
Some notes:<br>
<ul>
<li><b>Don't disable testcases by prefixing them with FIXME_ or
disabled_ or by commenting out @Test</b></li>
<ul>
<li><b>Instead, add the @Ignore annotation</b></li>
<ul>
<li>This way hudson gives us a report on how many testcases
have been ignored.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<li><b>Don't use try-catch to test if an exception is thrown. Use
@Test(expected = MyException.class)</b></li>
<ul>
<li>I haven't migrated this in all testcases, as I couldn't
automate that.</li>
<li>Please fix it in any code you come across.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li>To use assertions like assertEquals(a,b), just add this
import:</li>
<ul>
<li>import static org.junit.Assert.*;<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li>Don't import anything from junit.framework.*.</li>
<ul>
<li>Import only from org.junit.*</li>
<li>Configure your Eclipse/Intellij to not propose those imports
to keep mistakes to a minimum.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li>TestSuites have been removed.</li>
<ul>
<li>Use your Eclipse/IntelliJ to single out tests, packages of
tests or modules.</li>
<li>They bring extra maintenance (and seem to be seen as legacy
since junit 4?)</li>
</ul>
<li>Testcases that print out their own name, no longer print out
their own name</li>
<ul>
<li>The junit runner prints out the name already</li>
<ul>
<li>Otherwise it looks like it's run twice (while it's not)</li>
</ul>
</ul>
</ul>
I hope this push (many files were changed) doesn't cause to many
merge conflicts.<br>
If it does: just take your revision and upgrade your file to junit 4
manually.<br>
