#135 CoupledTestCase incorrectly thrown when referencing the current class

[Jeff Storey]

In a test class named MyTest, I call

MyTest.getResourceAsStream

Codenarc marks this as a CoupledTestCase error, but this isn't coupled to another test case, it is simply using the current class' name.

Available in CodeNarc 0.19

I just recently upgraded to 0.19. This bug still exists.

[Chris Mair]

Hmmmm, that is weird.

This, for instance, is the test case that now passes with no violations:

        class MyTest extends GroovyTestCase {
            void testMethod() {
                def input = MyTest.getResourceAsStream('sample.txt')
            }
        }

Can you paste in the code that exhibits the error?

[Jeff Storey]

This does it:

package com.sample

import org.junit.Test

class MyTest {

@Test
void "this is the test"() {
    MyTest.getResourceAsStream("somefile").text
}

}

What I noticed is that it does not happen if the class is in the default package. If an explicit package is specified, then it happens.

[Chris Mair]

Yup, that was it -- the bug fix only works for classes in the default package. Okay, we'll get this fixed.
