Tests should be run according to dependency order
-------------------------------------------------
Key: BUILDR-99
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-99
Project: Buildr
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core features
Affects Versions: 1.3.1, 1.3.2
Reporter: Lacton
Priority: Minor
Let's have two modules, moduleA and moduleB.
Let's say moduleA depends on moduleB.
buildr compiles moduleB before compiling moduleA. This is the expected behavior.
Then buildr runs tests from moduleA before running tests from moduleB. This
behavior can be misleading. A defect in moduleB could make a test in moduleA
fail. The test process will stop at moduleA and will not show the failing test
in moduleB.
Although the information that a test in moduleB is failing can be obtained by
calling buildr with the 'test=all' option, it requires more intellectual effort
to analyze the situation.
I propose buildr runs tests according to the test dependency tree.
define "test_order" do
define "moduleA" do
compile.with project('moduleB')
package :jar
end
define "moduleB" do
package :jar
end
end
