org.apache.s4.test.
Which naming scheme do we choose?
In my experience, putting tests in the same package as the class being
tested helps a lot with interface design, i.e. you don't need to
make a
method public to make it testable but you can use the default package
visibility and yet not include it in the package-level API. This
makes it
cleaner what the API itself is.
An easy way to separate tests and source code is to have a /src
subdirectory
and a /test subdirectory with mirrored source trees below (so you have
src/org/apache/s4/ and test/org/apache/s4/ and classes in these two
locations are in the same package).
This is a good suggestion. I would suggest that we instead have test
under src, and separate test from main code under src, something like:
src/main
src/test
