I would definitely say maven, in particular testing experience. * the test report window should get preference over the output window, which is way more usefull, although sometimes to much truncated. * when a test is selected in the left panel, the right panel of the test report should show the output. no i type this i wonder if it already does that. * running one test file is not very stable, in that something runs but no results are shown. * high on my wishlist: run a single test method from either the navigator or the editor (there are annotations) or both, or at least re_run from test report window. i try to promote tdd, and to make that really work, running tests should be blazingly fast. might need some cooperation from either apache-maven and the junit 5 team or even both.
keep making netbeans the preferred java ide.
