Mark Derricutt's Disturbing Thoughts

TestNG and IntelliJ

posted Sunday, 3 July 2005
Started to look at TestNG more yesterday with a few simple tests that didn't particular test anything in particular, then noticed the Running TestNG programmatically section in the TestNG manual and started thinking...

After about an hour of tinkering and browsing code from some other bundled plugins for IntelliJ I now have a crude, and barely functionality plugin that adds a TestNG section to the run/debug dialogs of IDEA.

This things so crude in fact, that it doesn't yet even know about the projects classpath, so is only running tests from the plugin classpath/classloader, and is just outputting test results to System.out.  With a bit more tinkering, and more of an understanding of TestNG this might even become usable...

I'm also very interested in this. Good luck on making this functional!

Very cool. I finally sat down to look at TestNG and wondered immediately if there was a plug-in for our beloved IntelliJ. Ping me if you need a tester or some other kind of help.
