I think we should also ask ourselves if the IDE NetBeans must promote JUnit 5 or not.
I don't see a big push from actual users for JUnit 5. And for most users JUnit 4 is quite adequate (and I wonder how many are picking 5 because it's newer versus because they are actually missing something in JUnit 4). The IDE should promote unit testing, that's for sure. A given unit testing library... some data would be nice. --emi https://coolbeans.xyz/ - CoolBeans: An IDE for Java, JavaEE, PHP and more!
