Ok , if I understand you correctly , then all the xyzTestCase classes
will then use the BeanFactoryLocator to load the beans , thereby
avoiding the issue of proliferation of the loading of
applicationContext.xml file from each xyzTestCase.
I looked around last night and got some ideas from the Turbine
website.One of their tests uses he wrapper class TestSetup.So you'd
have something like
public static Test suite(){
/* Tests that need Spring */
TestSuite tsuite = new TestSuite();
tsuite.addTest(test1Test.suite());
tsuite.addTest(test2Test.suite());
tsuite.addTest(test3Test.suite());
TestSetup wrapper= new TestSetup(tsuite)
{
private TurbineConfig config = null;
public void setUp()
{
try
{
ClassPathXmlApplicationContext context = new
ClassPathXmlApplicationContext( "applicationContext.xml" )
}
catch (Exception e)
{
fail( StringUtils.stackTrace(e) );
}
}
};
TestSuite realSuite = new TestSuite();
realSuite.addTest(wrapper);
return realSuite;
}
But , then with this you'd have to run all your test cases as a suite.
