[mdt-ocl.dev] JUnit clean-up - Bugzilla 254919

["Ed Willink" <ed@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=254919

When verifying that the backtracking parser passed the JUnit tests
I had some trouble getting the tests to run, because I was trying
to run standalone and Christian always runs as plug-in. I
eventually fixed the tests to work either way; standalone is
distinctly quicker. Christian wasn't very enthusiastic about
standalone. My fixes therefore clutter one of my workspaces.

I propose to refactor the tests so that
a) all similar tests share a common abstract test case class
b) UML and Ecore binding tests share test code
c) tests run standalone or as plugin tests

b) may require some enrichment of the UMLReflection API.

Any objections/suggestions.

Not promising to do this like tomorrow, but I prefer to clear
away backlog millstones.

    Regards

        Ed Willink
