I have JUnit set up with Eclipse. But my test won't run.


It's pretty darn simple. How come it won't work? I'm using JUnit 4 included with Eclipse.

It says <terminated> above the console.

Garrett,
What version of Eclipse are you using?

I'm moving this to the IDEs forum, since the unit test itself is fine.

I've not seen JUnit done with annotations. The traditional convention is that you make a class that parallels the class name to be tested and name it "classnameTest", using the original class name as the value of "classname" and making it a subclass of a JUnit base class. Then Eclipse can run it via a right-click menu option.

Miguel,
JUnit 4 supports annotations instead of having to extend TestCase. I don't know if the IDEs are up to it though.

Garrett, in my Eclipse 3.2 that test class works just fine (as long as you add the JUnit 4 .jar file to the project's classpath).

How are you trying to run it?
