Description Markus Kuppe

Currently JUnit Plug-in tests are always executed on Equinox. It should be possible to choose the OSGi framework from the list of installed frameworks on which the launch should be executed instead.
This would foster interoperability between different OSGi frameworks.

Thanks
Markus

The JUnit plug-in launch configs are based off the Eclipse Application launch config.  Since they are Eclipse specific, so are the JUnit configs.  Closing as WONTFIX as I don't there is enough interest in an entirely new launch configuration for launching junit within an osgi framework launch.

I'm sure that if an interested third party was to provide a patch it would be considered.

Last time I checked "helpwanted" was the keyword to mark this. WONTFIX does not really encourage anything.

So you're volunteering then Marcus?

ATM it does not look as if a patch is likely to be accepted. A few words/suggestions on how this enhancement is tackled best, might also help.

I have not tried... but is it possible to make an OSGi launch configuration that runs JUnit tests? I.e. include the JUnit bundles (and required bundles) and add a command line argument to start the JUnit application and test suite?
