Re: [platform-ui-dev] Test work for platform.ui

[Daniel Rolka <Daniel.Rolka@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe we can select the tests for Gerrit
and migrate ones to JUnit 4 and fix ones that work too long in order to
keep our Gerrit's build quite quick as we have it now

thanks,
Daniel

Hi,

In the past we had commits which broke tests. Typically
someone discovered that later and notified the developer. 

I think it would be good to include the tests in your
Gerrit build trigger and I'm working on this for several test plug-ins. 

I use the following bugs for this work:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=441850
- Umbrella bug for activating the tests per bundle
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=443139
- Adjust Gerrit build job

I know that this will make the Gerrit build slightly longer,
if that becomes a problem I think we may want to categories our tests and
only execute the "not so long running" tests. To support this,
I'm also looking into converting our tests to JUnit 4 which would allow
to use JUnit categories.

Best regards, Lars
