I'm all for TestNG... hopefully now the maven reports are all happy since its now supported by surefire.

But, the TestSupport classes does not need to be JUnit specific, the same code will work fine in TestNG... and once we switch over to TNG fully (if or when that is), all we need to do (optionally) is drop the extends from TestCase and everything else should be fine.

Hi Jason,

Before going too deeply in to the JUnit space what do you think of using TestNG. I've used it on a couple of applications and found it very nice to work with. Its yet another reason to move to JDK 5 though so I'm not sure about timing (although you can use it with JDK 1.4 I've not done that and I don't like annotations in comments generally).

TTFN,

YAY!!!

Can you make the File ref to ${basedir} work in idea without setting test properties?

thanks

I'd like to add a new module to our build, geronimo-testsupport, which provides at the moment a single TestSupport class which sets up logging and some other commonly used bits (like the File ref to ${basedir}).

And then incrementally I'd like for all of our test classes to extend from this instead of junit.framework.TestCase.

Any objections?
