An implementation of sbt's test interface for JUnit 4. This allows you to run JUnit tests from sbt.
Unlike Scala testing frameworks like ScalaTest (which can also run JUnit test cases), both JUnit and this adapter are pure Java, so you can run JUnit tests with any Scala version supported by sbt without having to build a binary-compatible test framework first.
See LICENSE.txt for licensing conditions (BSD-style).
Add the following dependency to your build.sbt:
libraryDependencies += "com.novocode" % "junit-interface" % "0.11" % "test"
JUnit itself is automatically pulled in as a transitive dependency. sbt already knows about junit-interface so the dependency alone is enough. You do not have to add it to the list of test frameworks.
The following options are supported for JUnit tests:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
-v |
Log "test run started" / "test started" / "test run finished" events on log level "info" instead of "debug". |
-q |
Suppress stdout for successful tests. Stderr is printed to the console normally. Stdout is written to a buffer and discarded when a test succeeds. If it fails, the buffer is dumped to the console. Since stdio redirection in Java is a bad kludge (System.setOut() changes the static final field System.out through native code) this may not work for all scenarios. Scala has its own console with a sane redirection feature. If Scala is detected on the class path, junit-interface tries to reroute scala.Console's stdout, too. |
-n |
Do not use ANSI colors in the output even if sbt reports that they are supported. |
-s |
Try to decode Scala names in stack traces and test names. Fall back silently to non-decoded names if no matching Scala library is on the class path. |
-a |
Show stack traces and exception class name for AssertionErrors (thrown by all assert* methods in JUnit).` |
-c |
Do not print the exception class name prefix for any messages. With this option, only the result of getMessage() plus a stack trace is shown. |
+v |
Turn off -v. Takes precedence over -v. |
+q |
Turn off -q. Takes precedence over -q. |
+n |
Turn off -n. Takes precedence over -n. |
+s |
Turn off -s. Takes precedence over -s. |
+a |
Turn off -a. Takes precedence over -a. |
+c |
Turn off -c. Takes precedence over -c. |
--ignore-runners=<COMMA-SEPARATED-STRINGS> |
Ignore tests with a @RunWith annotation if the Runner class name is contained in this list. The default value is org.junit.runners.Suite. |
--tests=<REGEXPS> |
Run only the tests whose names match one of the specified regular expressions (in a comma-separated list). Non-matched tests are ignored. Only individual test case names are matched, not test classes. Example: For test MyClassTest.testBasic() only "testBasic" is matched. Use sbt's test-only command instead to match test classes. |
-Dkey=value |
Temporarily set a system property for the duration of the test run. The property is restored to its previous value after the test has ended. Note that system properties are global to the entire JVM and they can be modified in a non-transactional way, so you should run tests serially and not perform any other tasks in parallel which depend on the modified property. |
--run-listener=<CLASS_NAME> |
A (user defined) class which extends org.junit.runner.notification.RunListener. An instance of this class is created and added to the JUnit Runner, so that it will receive the run events. For more information, see RunListener. Note: this uses the test-classloader, so the class needs to be defined in src/test or src/main or included as a test or compile dependency |
--include-categories=<CLASSES> |
A comma separated list of category class names that should be included. Only tests with one or more of these categories will be run. |
--exclude-categories=<CLASSES> |
A comma separated list of category class names that should be excluded. No tests that match one or more of these categories will be run. |
Any parameter not starting with - or + is treated as a glob pattern for matching tests. Unlike the patterns given directly to sbt's test-only command, the patterns given to junit-interface will match against the full test names (as displayed by junit-interface) of all atomic test cases, so you can match on test methods and parts of suites with custom runners.
You can set default options in your build.sbt file:
testOptions += Tests.Argument(TestFrameworks.JUnit, "-q", "-v")
Or use them with the test-quick and test-only commands:
test-only -- +q +v *Sequence*h2mem*
