JUnit Output Directory

[Ole Ersoy <ol...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

Does anyone know whether I can specify which directory
a junit test will run in.

If I run them the way they are, all the output will go
in the root project directory, however I prefer if it
goes into src/test/output.

Thanks,
- Ole

Re: JUnit Output Directory

I am trying to test a class that produces a file. I'd like the file to be
generated in the target directory.
Is there a way to pass the target directory to JUnit. 
The documenation on surefire says that system properties won't evaluate
non-string properties, speicifically siting this example 

"...will literally pass $project.build.outputDirectory because the value of
that expression is a File, not a String."

What kind of output do your Junit tests have?

IMHO, Junit shouldn't have any output, except for failure of the test. Junit
is about automatised tests. Such test shouldn't have any output.
Moreover, if your tests have any output, it should definitly goes in the
target directory, not in the src...
