What is New (see all changes)?

Oct 13 '06 Default implementation of Preferences isn't used for running tests anymore

Not persistent implementation of java.util.prefs.Preferences is installed in place of the platform-specific default implementation for running tests. See document Preferences in NetBeans to learn more.
Jun 30 '06 Added class MockServices

The MockServices class now supports closer cooperation with Lookup. By default, clients listening to Lookup.Result changes will be notified about change in its content whenever one calls MockServices.setServices.
May 11 '06 Added class MockServices

Added new utility to help unit tests create mock implementations of global services for lookup.
Apr 1 '06 Non-deterministic execution can be made deterministic

An excelent tool to emulate race condition, deadlock or any other non-deterministic behaviour created in the form of Log.controlFlow method.
Apr 1 '06 Added support for logging

Added two ways how to enable logging in a test case. One can either overwrite NbTestCase.logLevel method and return the right level to capture in the test and then all the messages logged with the level and greater will be sent to NbTestCase.getLog() stream which is placed in working directory.

Or one can directly call Log.enable to capture all the logging into a CharSequence which can be later queried for its content, usually by calling its.toString() method.

Use Cases

Tests typically extends NbTestCase.

Exported Interfaces

This table lists all of the module exported APIs with defined stability classifications. It is generated based on answers to questions about the architecture of the module. Read them all...

Group of property interfaces

Interface Name	In/Out	Stability	Specified in What Document?
nbjunit.diff.impl.CmdLine	Exported	Under Development	used only when nbjunit.diff.impl is set to org.netbeans.junit.diff.NativeDiff class. This property contain command line, which is called from NativeDiff class to perform comparision. This property use also '%TESTFILE%' and '%PASSFILE%' variables understood by NbJUnit, which are replaced with real file names when running tests.
nbjunit.workdir	Exported	Under Development	path to a directory, which is used as a root for tests' working directories (for details see JavaDoc for NbTestCase.getWorkDir()).
