Hi everybody,
after looking at the JUnit-Lambda prototype, I was a little disappointed
that there was no TestEngine allowing to register tests by calling a test
method.
So I decided to write my own engine. I failed miserably, which was probably
due to me being really tired after a great conference I attended. So take
my impressions with a grain of salt, but anyway here are they:
1. (good) the API is simple (few methods to implement)
2. Why is discoverTest of type void? I think it should really return some
kind of collection of Tests/ a TestPlanSpecification, instead of getting a
TestPlanSpecification passed in. The merging with other results of other
engines should be task of the launcher
3. What is an Engine Descriptor, and why does my engine gets one passed as
an argument??? My Engine really should know how to describe itself ... but
wait an EngineDescriptor is some kind of TestDescriptor??? Is my engine a
test? doesn't make sense to me. If it describes a test, then why has it an
attribute isTest, which returns false by default?
4. Why is there an execute method in a TestEngine? If a TestEngine is
something (possibly) provided by a third party, it should not execute
tests. It should register them (along with all necessary and possible meta
information) and the core of JUnit should execute them.
5. How is the ReflectionUtils supposed to work? I tried
findAllClassesInPackage
and findAllClassesInClasspathRoot, but didn't to manage to get anything out
of them, except null.
6. As mentioned above, I'm too stupid (or was too tired) to make it work.
If somebody wants to take a look, the poor results are in
https://github.com/schauder/junit-lambda/tree/lambda-engine
kind regards
Jens
