Summary: Integrate testing with debugger
Initial Comment:
I would like to debug a specific test method. In order to do so, I
must do the following in the interactions pane after setting up the
appropriate breakpoints (to be completely correct, there might be
other methods that should be invoked):
MyTestClass t = new MyTestClass();
t.setUp();
t.testSomething();
If I need to do it again, I have to repeat those 3 statements. Since
bugs are often exposed by tests, a more elegent solution is
desireable.
EASY SOLUTION: Allow debugging and testing to happen
concurrently, permitting the user to "Test Current File" and hit the
breakpoint.
ELEGENT SOLUTION: When the user right-clicks in a test method
body, have a "Debug test method" option. A breakpoint is
automatically created at the first line of the method. (Of course, in
order to do this, the editor needs to have a symbolic understanding
of the text, similar to that required for code completion.)
