AutomaticTestSuites

What's it about?

In software projects with sizeable code bases maintaining the suite of all unit tests regularly becomes an issue: developers want to be able to execute the entire collection of tests with a single command, but an AllTests suite that lists the test cases explicitly must be kept manually, which is inefficient and error-prone.

The Eclipse IDE allows to run all tests in a single Java project or source folder directly from the context menu, but doesn't extend this functionality to multiple projects or even the entire workspace.

How to use it?

Usus provides a multi-project JUnit runner that lets you run all unit tests in

1. the projects you have selected (if the projects are not totally unrelated), or
2. all projects the currently selected project depends upon.

To use it, go to the Package Explorer and select

1. the desired projects and choose "Run As > JUnit Test", or
2. the root project and choose "Run As > All Tests Suite (JUnit)".
