JGrasp and JUnit Integration

Requirements

• Java JDK 1.5 or later
• You will need a JDK to compile or run any Java files on your machine. You can download this from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp.
• JGrasp v1.8.6 or later
• If you do not already have JGrasp installed, please download the latest version from http://www.jgrasp.org/.
• This write-up was created with JGrasp version 1.8.6; exact instructions may differ if the version you are downloading is newer.
• JUnit v4.4
• If you do not already have JUnit 4.4 installed, please download it from here. Save it somewhere in your directories and remember this location.

Initial JGrasp/JUnit Setup

Add JUnit to Workspace Classpath

1. Load/open JGrasp.
2. Under "Settings", select "PATH / CLASSPATH" and then "Workspace".

3. Under the "PATH" tab, select the "CLASSPATHS" tab.
4. Click "New" to add a new jar file to the classpath.

5. Browse to find your junit-4.4.jar file from your JUnit 4.4 installation. You can leave the documentation path blank. Click "OK" to proceed.

6. Click "OK" on the "Settings for workspace" window.

Running JUnit Tests

1. Load your java file that contains your test suite. The file should contain a main method with a single line executing your suite with the TestRunner. For example:

public static void main (String[] args) {
junit.textui.TestRunner.run (suite());
}

where suite() refers to your suite’s collection of tests. For an example, see AllTests.java.

2. Run the application as you would normally. For example, in JGrasp, select the AllTests.java file and click on the button with a red man running.

2. Or, from the command-line, type

java AllTests
