Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Roberto Leibman (rleibman) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: @WriteThis annotation Initial Comment: Right now tests fall into the following categories: Passed, Failed, Error and Ignored. There is still one more category that would be useful to have: "Tests to be Written". These are tests that have been identified but have not been written, for some purposes they should be counted as failed, but we also like to count them separately. Tools that generate test skeletons could annotate them with @WriteThis instead of what some of them currently do (fail("Write This")). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: David Saff (dsaff) Date: 2007-10-15 10:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325156 Originator: NO Unfortunately, one annotation cannot extend another. Could you use @Ignore with a tag in the string provided? @Ignore("WRITE THIS: Should send mail to boss")... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Roberto Leibman (rleibman) Date: 2007-10-05 11:43 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=232067 Originator: YES Right now I'm using the @Ignore annotation in this capacity. But I would like to have the flexibility to use @Ignore to ignore temporarily tests that I know may fail instead of using it to mark tests that are not written. Can an annotation extend another? If so, maybe it would be as simple as having @WriteThis extend @Ignore, tools that care could glean th e fact that the test is not written, other tools would simply ignore the test. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: David Saff (dsaff) Date: 2007-10-05 10:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325156 Originator: NO Roberto, How do you currently work around this problem? Do you manually inspect the results and mentally filter out the tests yet to be written from those indicating regressions? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=365278&aid=1807227&group_id=15278 |
