[ jEdit-devel ] unit testing with jedit?

[Alan E. <ala...@gm...>]

I'm playing around with junit 4.1 now. It's much nicer than version 3,
and takes advantages of the Java 1.5 annotations, which is quite nice.
So now I need to write a unit-test to reproduce a problem I am having
with Lucene. I'm wondering how to initialize the unit test. Should it
just start up the whole jEdit application? Or is there a way I can
test the routines directly.

Since the classes I want to test depend on jedit, and do things like
jEdit.getProperty(), I need the property system to be loaded.

Has anyone else written unit tests for pieces of jedit? How do you
initialize your tests?
