JSUnit relies on exceptions for problem reporting but if everything goes through OK it just returns. I'm not sure why the same technique can't be used by the Selenium test layer so that any failure exceptions are caught and documented as failures in the return information. It would mean some code in qooxdoo to run the tests so we have: Selenium command: qxRunTest - argument is regular expression that matches tests Calls via SRC & eval to: Qooxdoo function qx.dev.unit.Selenium.getInstance().runTest (or similar) to find and run appropriate tests catching exceptions etc as needed, marshalling results Values returned to Selenium for logging The qooxdoo function would be included as standard in "make source" but would normally be excluded in "make build". "make build-test" would include it so that tests could be run on a build version of the code. I don't see any way for qxRunTest to know which functions are available to run, therefore carrying out tests which match its argument, unless there is a function or class in the qooxdoo code which keeps a register of the available functions; or indeed searches for them dynamically. Once we have that function/class we can make it work for us by keeping compatibility of the unit test functions. > Of course it seems possible to combine both protocols in the same > tests, these checking whether they are run in "Testrunner-" or > "Seleniumrunner-mode". I would really like to avoid that!
