Keyboard Shortcut for Create Test File

Does this exist? Is it possible? :) :) :)

FWIW this is all I see:

It's a bit more complicated that the one above. The one above is a global action, while we want to add a shortcut for a very contextual action (when class identifier is under cursor). If we want to add a command (to later assign a shortcut for that), we should first thing of the flow and when it's available.

Today you can also see whether you create or browse an existing test. If we give a shortcut - we might create tests when people just wanted to explore the existing.

So not so trivial..

Totally fine. It should be a "navigate to test location" shortcut. If it doesn't exist, create the file. If it exists, then visit it. :)

TestCop has this functionality, and so did TestLinker when it was maintained. Neither of them were/are as precise as your project, however. 😁 That is, neither of them paid attention to the actual class it was in but rather only the class file.

IMO if you press a keyboard shortcut it should consider where the cursor currently rests. That is my expectation, however.

Would you expect this shortcut to work only if cursor is on a class name identifier (where you have a quick action today), or if cursor is anywhere within a file? If that would be on a file identifier only - would it be fine to you?

I would prefer it to be anywhere within a class/struct/etc. if at all possible, but I am not picky. If the class identifier is the best you can do I will have to find the shortcut to navigate there first. :) I am sure R# has that. 👍

I was coming here to look for the same possibility of a keyboard shortcut for this feature.
It would be real time saver if this was possible.
