details, but be able to track that the testing was done. And, at least in some areas of
government work, there are various requirements involving proving/documenting that
testing was done.

I agree about what's important - but in reality, my cynicism kicks in, and the project manager suddenly wants to see "Unit Test Reports" (like, I thought, unit testing was checking that your code met the design at a fine-grained level, so what is there to report if it works?).
It's just that I don't see the value (to anyone other than the developer) of a list of test methods and the word "passed" next to them. Surely you need to understand what each test case was to get value out of such a report?

Actually, I disagree with you. Javadocs comments of the unit test code is
always accessible, but that doesn't tell you much about what really counts,
which is how much coverage of your code is *indeed* tested.
To find out this really crucial info, use a tool like Clover. --DD

Subject: JUnitReport - more info to display?
Does anyone have a way of getting JUnitReport to provide more "descriptive"
output?
I'm thinking of things like adding a JavaDoc comment to each of the test
methods and having that output in the table.
Maybe I'm looking at this the wrong way, the unit test method names may well
be descriptive to *me*, but if I want to supply the report to someone else
(for example, a PHB) it would be useful to display more information on
exactly what has been tested and I'm sure it ought to be possible to
generate this automatically.
Thanks for any ideas or solutions!
