New feedback mail address

Our domain moreunit.org is not available at the moment and we will move it to another provider. Until this is finished we changed our feedback mail address to moreunit.feedback@gmail.com Hopefully we did not miss to many feedback mails because we don't know for how long moreunit.org is unavailabe now.

Milestone 2 is out

We just released the second milestone on our current release train to version 3.0.0.
We have switched to Java 6 and fixed some bugs.
Thanks for all the feedback!

MoreUnit 3.0.0 Milestone 1 released

We just released Milestone 1 on our 3.0.0 release train.
A lot of things have changed and we are happy to announce multi language support now! The preference/property pages have been polished and you can get a preview of how your changes affect the way MoreUnit will find corresponding tests.

If you encounter any problems or if you have feedback don't hesitate to contact us.

Some news about current work

The blog has been silent for a while now but that does not mean that we did not work on MoreUnit. Here are the latest news about what is going on behind the hood:

• We have switched our build process to Tycho which seems to be great improvement. After a lot of frustrating hours automating the build process in the past switching to Tycho was a very good decision. If you need a good starting point for Tycho try this Tutorial from Lars Vogel
• A complete new version of MoreUnit is in work which should add multi-language support. If you are interested take a look a the multi-lang-support in our GIT repo
• Last but not least if you use Jetbrains products too (like AppCode, IntelliJ, RubyMine...) we have some great news for you. There is a mini version of MoreUnit. It is just a test/cut switcher but hopefully some more features will be implemented in the further versions.

MoreUnit 2.4.3 released

We have released a new version of MoreUnit:

• Fix: do not consider potential test cases with packages that do not match the package of the class under test anymore, except as a proposal when jumping (bugs 3482684 & 3386098)


• Adds a "New Class" entry in the "Jump To..." pop-up menu


• Fix: the "New Class" wizard is back when "jumping" from a test class that does not have an associated tested class yet


• The support for mocking frameworks now also works for Eclipse platforms that use Java 5 but do not provide JAXB


• Fix: occasional exception when moving classes (bug 3285663)


• The preferences UI has been improved so that it better fits in the dialog, and tooltips appears


• Improves source folder guesses for Maven-like project (more work to come)


• Adds "throws Exception" to generated test methods


• Fix: the "no constructor" warning does not appear anymore when mocking dependencies of a class that has a default constructor


• Much work has been done (and is still done) to improve testing of MoreUnit :-)

Latest news

A long time is gone since our last blog post and our last release. But we are hard-working under the hood and we are preparing a new release at the moment. In the meantime we have started to use SWTBot to increase the quality of MoreUnit.

MoreUnit 2.4.1 released

We have released a new version of MoreUnit this week.
MoreUnit now has mocking support, which can be installed as a separate plugin.

With this release we relaunched a new website, thanks to Nicolas!

MoreUnit goes GIT

MoreUnit is now available via GIT: git://moreunit.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/moreunit/moreunit


SVN will be dropped soon.

MoreUnit switched to Subversion

The MoreUnit project switched from CVS to Subversion. The new repository URL is https://moreunit.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/moreunit
CVS is still available at the moment but will be dropped soon.
The reason for this switch is the long CVS downtime after the sourceforge attack. Perhaps this switch is only a first step, we are thinking about switching to GIT.

MoreUnit 2.3.0 released

• Package is now shown when user is prompted for selecting a class (Jump and Run actions)
• Fix: exception when moving class to non-source folder
• Fix: exception when jumping action had delay
• Minor fixes
  

Sorry for not answering to blog comments

Today I realized that I don't get a mail, if someone posts a comment to one of the blog entries and that's why I missed that some people commented to some of the posts. Sorry for that. I have changed the settings now. If some of the comments (especially these one with questions) are still up to date (some are quite old) let me know and I will try to help.

The last blog entry is a while ago, but that does not mean that nothing has happened in the meantime. Nicolas added some features and bugfixes and we are preparing a new release soon.
The people who followed the blog know that I had a hard time to p2-enable the update site. After getting this to work I concentrated on the deployment process, because one-click-one-deploy rules ;-)
Again I had a hard time automating the build process, but it I made good progress with it (using pde-build now).

Version 2.2.1 released

A new version of MoreUnit is out with the following features:

• Extension point enhancements
• Extended method search has been improved (better performance and accuracy)
• Different actions for running a single test method or the whole test case
• Better support for TestNG (now runs several test cases at once)
  

Update after a long time

It's time for another blog post after a long time.

Some of the latest news:

• A new release is out for a while now
• The MoreUnit team has grown (two motivated developers)

As I can not fall behind if the committers are so hard-working, I fixed a bug which seems to be a old one, at least the buggy code was old ;-)

Next small enhancement

Tonight I implemented another small features which was on the wish list for a long time now.

If you create a test method moreUnit will now use the line delimiter from the actual formatter setting.

Small enhancement (creating additional test methods)

Tonight I had some time to take a look at the list of feature requests of moreUnit.

Supporting move support for instance methods is not possible because eclipse does not allow participants in MoveInstanceMethodProcessor. So I left a comment in bugzilla and started to implement something different.

I have choosen a small enhancement: if you create a additional test method via the shortcut moreUnit appended the new test method at the bottom of the test case. I have changed that and moreUnit will append the additional test method directly below the test method in which the shortcut was pressed.

Version 2.0.1 released

Today a new version of MoreUnit released. Because of the new feature id I created a new update site (because you need to uninstall older version to switch to the newest version). Thanks to Andreas who helped me to solve the problem with the missing property page.

Frustrattion again

Today I wanted to play around with the new planned release and when installing the plugin the property page does not appear. That is a behaviour one of my teammates already had with the current release (and the prooblem disappeared at his laptop suddenly ...).

So now I am little bit frustrated because it does not seem to be a problem from the property page configuration :-(

Preparation for release of version 2.0.0

After changing the feature id, I decided to give a higher version number to the new release.

Changing the feature id, will make it necessary to uninstall and reinstall the plugin, so I created a new update site for the plugin.

http://moreunit.sourceforge.net/update-site/ hosts the new release already, but the official release will take some more days (to update documentation...)
