How to unit Test for Xtext

Question

I have to test my grammar (written with Xtext). I've see it is possible with use of unit test, but I can't find a good tutorial about it.

Can you help me?

Answer 1

There are several links about this.

• The official tutorials have chapter about special Xtext/Junit support: Unit Testing the Language

• Xtext-Utils has some tools

• Xpect provides a DSL for unittesting DSLs. Slides here (Looks interesting)

• The slides of Markus Voelter " Testing DSLs " explain stuff.

Answer 2

Xpect seems to be the latest development in xtext testing. http://www.xpect-tests.org/
