WildcardPatternSuite finds no classes

I'm trying to use the WildcardPatternSuite from junit-toolbox, but the testsuite fails with

java.lang.Exception: failed to scan C:\Users\ms\workspaces\comet4\PubServerTests\build\com\priint\pubserver\tests\testsuites using wildcard patterns [**/*Test.class] -- org.junit.runners.model.InitializationError

The code is

package com.priint.pubserver.tests.testsuites;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import com.googlecode.junittoolbox.SuiteClasses;
import com.googlecode.junittoolbox.WildcardPatternSuite;
@RunWith(WildcardPatternSuite.class)
@SuiteClasses({"**/*Test.class"})
public class AllTests {}

The test classes are in packages below com.priint.pubserver. and are called *Test, i.e. EntityTest.

I'm using Eclipse 4.3 and starting the test suite with "Run As -> JUnit Test"

What's wrong here?

Edit: It seems the pattern "**/*Test.class" does start at the current package, i.e. it finds no classes in packages "above" the current package. Is there a pattern that traverses "up"?

Solution

  • Move your class to a package that is a super package of all the classes that shall be run by the test suite.
