Ant Versions

Some testers have been assigned an older Ant version and platform to test on. All others can chose any Ant version and platform but should likely test on the latest released Ant version (Ant 1.6.3).

Feature Testing

Input Handling

• Same JRE
  • with / without valid args
  • cancel
  • -noinput
• Separate JRE
  • with / without valid args
  • cancel
  • -noinput

Folding Options

• Make use of the editor context ruler menu
• Key binding actions: Expand, Expand All, Collapse, Enable folding
• Folding is presented for all the partitions in the Ant buildfile. Partion hover is correct.

Hyperlink Navigation

• Enable / disable
• Key Modifier and modifier manipulation (preference page)
• Links presented for all reasonable Ant elements
• From Ant output: buildfile; javac warnings/errors; antcall warnings/errors

External Documentation

• Works for all Ant elements
  • tasks
  • projects
  • targets
  • types
• Adapts to key binding change

AntView

• No loss of functionality from 3.0
  • Context menu actions
  • DnD
  • Add/removal
  • Search
  • Running targets (default and otherwise)
• New functionality from 3.0
  • Navigation to targets with selection for normal, external entities and imported targets

Navigation

• Open declaration support works for
  • properties (from files as well)
  • targets
  • referenced elements
  • macrodefs, taskdefs

Import Project from Buildfile

• Create a Java Project using an external buildfile containing a javac task
  • error cases
  • correct links setup for multi-platform
  • correct links for various destdir and sourcedir
  • correct links for various destdir and sourcedir

Export Project from Buildfile

• Export a Java Project to a buildfile containing a javac task etc.
  • error cases
  • classpath including plugin dependencies

Debug Buildfiles (same JRE)

• Debug buildfiles in the same JRE
  • breakpoints (check target breakpoints as well)
  • stepping (step into, step over for constructs like antcall and ant)
  • dependency stack
  • suspend / resume / terminate
  • run to line support
  • properties update correctly in the variables view

Debug Buildfiles (separate JRE)

• Debug buildfiles in a separate JRE
  • breakpoints (check target breakpoints as well)
  • stepping (step into, step over for constructs like antcall and ant)
  • dependency stack
  • suspend / resume / terminate
  • run to line support
  • properties update correctly in the variables view

Builders specified to run for specific build kinds

• Ant builders set to execute different targets for different build kinds (Ant builder target tab)
  • auto
  • manual
  • after a clean (full)
  • on a clean
• Program builders triggered on clean (Build option tab)
• Migration of existing builders to new format
  • 3.0.1 builder to 3.1 builder

Ant preference pages and launch tabs

• Correct indication of objects contributed to build (same/separate JRE)
  • properties
  • classpath entries
  • tasks
  • types

Performance and Leaks

• "Large" taskdefs (ant-contrib) in Ant Editor
• "Large" imports (need to generate test case) in Ant Editor
• "Large" properties (need to generate test case) in Ant Editor

Marking occurrences

• respecting preference and editor toolbar setting to mark occurrences
• sticky occurrences setting
• ensure targets references are correctly highlighted
• ensure properties references are correctly highlighted

Rename in file

• ensure linked mode is correct and edits are executed correctly

Buildfile error control

• ensure correct adherance to the user preference settings for:
  • ignoring all buildfile errors
  • ignoring buildfile errors in specific buildfiles based on names

External Tools Builders

• migration from 2.0, 3.0 (with and without prompting)
• Java projects and simple projects
• add / remove (ensure cleanup on disk)
• rename on creation and as an edit (ensure cleanup on disk)
• executing an Ant build and program
• same VM / separate VM
• making use of environment variables

Toggling Auto-reconcile in the Ant Editor

• ensure correct functionality on / off (use the editor toolbar action with the "refresh" icon)
• reconcile triggered on save
