Re: Test Execution Listener

Hi Theofanis,

can you help?

Is there an official way (via public API) to add listeners to the test
execution? So that external plugins can attach to?

I haven't found any documentation about this. There is also no published
documentation about the *.testrunner.* modules in
http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/. I guess they are supposed to be used
from external non-friend-modules?!

@Janpridial: You can also have a look at
https://github.com/mkleint/netbeans-continuous-surefire, where Milos hooked
his plugin in the surefire execution. I haven't tried it yet, but it is
worth a shot.

Thanks for your time!

With kind regards, markiewb
