Nb14, Maven and JUnit Jupiter

["Luff, Chris" <ch...@cerner.com.INVALID>]

Following up on a tweet[1] conversation about the interactions of the NetBeans UI and JUnit Jupiter. I created an example project[2]. The takeaway is that, if the junit-jupiter-engine is not on the class path the UI controls for running focused test methods do nothing and report a misconfigured Surefire or Junit4.

Let me know what y’all think.

Thx

Thanks.  The error message and POM change could definitely be more
helpful there, but I still think the project is probably
misconfigured.

The check is at
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/master/java/maven/src/org/netbeans/modules/maven/ActionProviderImpl.java#L224
and the error message is in that file too.

Try with mvn --debug.  While the test runs on the CLI, it seems to
pick up JUnit 3?  More to the point, without adding the
junit-jupiter-engine dependency, single test method selection on the
CLI doesn't work either as far as I can see - try adding a second test
method that throws an assertion error and using -Dtest=... to select
the method.

Best wishes,

Neil
