Platform: Ubuntu 7.10, Intel pentium M,
Sun Java 1.5.0_11
eclipse 3.2.2 SDK,
eclipse-Automated-Tests-3.2.2.zip,
maven 2.0.7,
pde-maven-plugin 1.0-alpha-1
I have been successful in building a feature based RCP product, using
the pde-maven-plugin.
Now I'm trying to get the UI plugin tests to run, and I've tried to make
the pde:test goal run:
http://mojo.codehaus.org/pde-maven-plugin/test-mojo.html
Does anyone know of an example of using this goal? So far I've been
unsuccessful in googling up an example.
What I've tried, is:
1. made a copy of the product build for linux
2. modified the POM in the copy to have pde:test execution config,
instead of the pde:ext execution that build the product
3. run a build with "mvn clean install", which seemed to build the same
as the regular product
4. copy in the config parameters that is inherited from a parent POM
5. tried to run "mvn test", but it still seemed to do the regular build
6. download the eclipse-Automates-Tests for 3.2.2 and extract the
test.xml file from there, and drop it into the test project's
${basedir}
7. do "mvn clean install", "mvn test", and "mvn install", and they all
seemed to do the same thing (ie. build the product). The output
from the build, didn't mention "test.xml" at all
8. I tried "mvn pde:test", and then I was at least able to provoke it
to output an error message from reading test.xml:
setup:

My current sources for how PDE build tests are supposed to work, are:
http://help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.pde.doc.user/guide/tools/launchers/junit_launcher.htm
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/PDEBuild
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-PDE-Automation/automation.html
Some of the information in the above URLs, seems to be a bit dated.
All hints, tips, pointers, etc. are welcome! It doesn't have to be
related to pde-maven-plugin, even. Any way of building eclipse RCP
applications, and do the JUnit tests on them, using maven, is of
interest (especially the stuff that can be made to work with eclipse
3.2.2...).
