Flexible naming of parameterized tests #24
Comments
|
Is this a duplicate of issue 44? |
|
Certainly resolving issue 44 would resolve this issue. I'm not clear if issue 44 covers any possible implementation of a better naming scheme. |
|
Basically, I would like to have the first parameter of a parameterized test to contain the name of the test. Then the @parameters annotation could have a setting to indicate that the first parameter is the description to be taken instead of the number. This parameter defaults to disabled for backwards compatibility. Alternatively, a static method to create names of test parameters would be more flexible. Did you have a look at the offered patch in issue 44? |

I've created a little patch for this issue as I'm currently creating a larger set of tests using the Parameterized runner. By adding an instance of a newly created class Parameterized.Name to each Object-array returned by the @parameters method, getName and testName return the name instead of the fParameterSetNumber. |

Thanks, Florian. This looks like a simple and flexible patch. Hopefully, this will be integrated into the standard JUnit some day (not too far into the future). |
|
Could somebody please review Dimitars and my changes? |

As I mentioned in a recent message to junit@yahoogroups.com, my throughput on code reviews is currently very limited, and may be through the end of 2011. I'm sorry for the delay. |
. In order that you can easily identify individual test, you may provide a name for the Parameters annotation. @parameters(name="my test") This name is allowed to contain placeholders, which are replaced at runtime. The placeholders are * {index} - the current parameter index * {0} - the first parameter * {1} - the second parameter * ... - the other parameters If you don't use the name parameter, then the current parameter index is used as name. Example: When you use @parameters(name="fib({0})={1}") with the Fibonacci example, then you get test names like "fib(3)=2". This feature is based on the work of Dimitar Dimitrov (pull request junit-team#145). Thank you.
