从命令行运行JUnit Test suite

Question

How do I run a Junit 4.8.1 Test suite from command line ? Also I want to use the categories introduces with JUnit 4.8 , is there a way where I can specify from command line the category which I want to run.

Answer 1

Using java run JUnitCore class (also see here ).

Categories are supposed to be used with test suites with @RunWith(Categories.class) , @IncludeCategory and @ExcludeCategory . I am not aware of any dynamic way to use categories to run tests but I'd like to know of such it it exists. You can have pre-defined test suites for certain categories to run them.

Answer 2

没有办法（从4.8开始）从命令行指定类别。

Answer 3

I can suggest two approaches: 1. Create Ant file with junit target and then invoke this target from commend line. 2. Implement test suite class, in it in some class with main() method. So you will be able to run it.

Answer 4

In 4.10, we do this:

mvn verify -p(your profiles) -Dit.test=(SuiteClass)

where SuiteClass is an empty class (no methods or fields) that is annotated with @RunWith(Categories.class) and @Suite.SuiteClasses({FooIT.class, BarIT.class, ...}) . FooIT and BarIT are the integration tests.
