Testing sbt plugin

[Stefan Langer]

Hi all,

I've written a plugin for sbt for generating project and classpath files for Eclipse. (http://github.com/musk/SbtEclipsify) Currently I'm working on upgrading it to 0.6.12 and for this purpose I want to create a few tests. Now I didn't find anything about how to test plugins. Is there anyway to setup a mock/dummy Project for testing purposes? If not is there a way to obtain the path to the root and the src of the project from within a test class which is part of the Sbt project?

Any hints greatly appreciated

-Stefan

Great stuff ... let me know if there's anything I can do to help from
the Eclipse end.

Cheers,

Miles

Hi Stefan,

Normally you could use the integration test framework. It is on my
list of things to update the documentation for before 0.7 is out.

Hey Stefan,

http://code.google.com/p/simple-build-tool/wiki/ChangeDetectionAndTesting#Testing

The version in 0.6 allows any command to follow '>' (previously, only
project actions were allowed, not 'reload' or changing projects).
Command failure is now indicated by preceding the '>' with a '-'
instead of [success]/[failure].

However, it works by forking 'xsbt', so you need an 'xsbt' script on
your path. To test a plugin, test projects have to declare the plugin
in project/plugins/. Both of these have to be changed before I think
it is really usable for plugin testing like it was in 0.5.6.
