-This project contains the tests for the Android Eclipse Plugins.
-
-You can do three things:
-1- Run the unit tests as a full "eclipse plugin" suite
-2- Run the unit tests as independent JUnit tests (not as plugin)
-3. Run the functional tests as a full "eclipse plugin" suite (require a real SDK)
-
-The unit tests are isolated tests that do not require external dependencies such as an SDK.
-The functional tests are higher level tests that may require a real SDK.
-
-------------------------------------------
-1- Running the unit tests as a full "eclipse plugin" suite
-------------------------------------------
-
-Steps to run the test suite:
-
-A- In Eclipse, import following projects from development/tools/eclipse/plugins:
- - adt-tests
- - adt
- - ddms
-
-B- Create a new "JUnit Plug-in Test" run configuration via the "Run > Open Run Dialog..." menu
-Set the launch configuration's data as follows:
-i. "Test" tab:
- Select "Run a single test"
- Project: adt-tests
- Test class: com.android.ide.eclipse.tests.UnitTests
- Test runner: JUnit 3
-ii. "Arguments" tab:
- Set "VM Arguments" to
-"-Dtest_data=<adt>/plugins/com.android.ide.eclipse.tests/unittests/data/"
-replacing "<adt>" with absolute filesystem path to the android plugin source location
-
-All other fields can be left with their default values
-
-C. Run the newly created launch configuration
-
-Running the tests will run a secondary instance of Eclipse.
-
-Please note the following constraints to be aware of when writing tests to run within a plugin environment:
-
-a. Access restrictions: cannot access package or protected members in a different
-plugin, even if they are in the same declared package
-b. Using classloader.getResource or getResourceAsStream to access test data will
-likely fail in the plugin environment. Instead, use AdtTestData to access test files
-in conjunction with the "test_data" environment variable mentioned above
-
-
--------------------------------------------
-2- Run the unit tests as independent JUnit tests (not plugin)
--------------------------------------------
-
-A- In Eclipse, import following projects from development/tools/eclipse/plugins:
- - adt-tests
- - adt
- - ddms
-
-B- Select the "unittests" source folder, right-click and select
- "Run As > JUnit Test" (i.e. not the plugin tests)
-
-This creates a debug configuration of type "JUnit Test" running all tests
-in the source folder "unittests". The runtime must be JUnit 3.
-
-Note: this method runs the tests within a regular JVM environment (ie not within
-an Eclipse instance). This method has the advantage of being quicker than running
-as a JUnit plugin test, and requires less potential set-up, but has the
-disadvantage of not properly replicating how the tests will be run in the
-continuous test environment. Tests that pass when run as "JUnit Tests" can
-fail when run as "JUnit Plugin Tests", due to the extra constraints imposed by
-running within an Eclipse plug-in noted in section 1.
-
-------------------------------------------
-3- Running the functional tests as a full "eclipse plugin" suite
-------------------------------------------
-
-Steps to run the test suite:
-
-A- In Eclipse, import following projects from development/tools/eclipse/plugins:
- - adt-tests
- - adt
- - ddms
-
-B - Setup an SDK on host machine, that is compatible with the Eclipse ADT plugins under test
-
-C- Create a new "JUnit Plug-in Test" run configuration via the "Run > Open Run Dialog..." menu
-Set the launch configuration's data as follows:
-i. "Test" tab:
- Select "Run a single test"
- Project: adt-tests
- Test class: com.android.ide.eclipse.tests.FuncTests
- Test runner: JUnit 3
-ii. "Environment" tab:
- Add a "sdk_home" environment variable, setting its path to the SDK from step B
-
-All other fields can be left with their default values
-
-D. Run the newly created launch configuration
-
-Running the tests will run a secondary instance of Eclipse.
