Test cases in inner classes with JUnit

Question

I read about Structuring Unit Tests with having a test class per class and an inner class per method. Figured that seemed like a handy way to organize the tests, so I tried it in our Java project. However, the tests in the inner classes doesn't seem to be picked up at all.

I did it roughly like this:

public class DogTests
{
    public class BarkTests
    {
        @Test
        public void quietBark_IsAtLeastAudible() { }

        @Test
        public void loudBark_ScaresAveragePerson() { }
    }

    public class EatTests
    {
        @Test
        public void normalFood_IsEaten() { }

        @Test
        public void badFood_ThrowsFit() { }
    }
}

Does JUnit not support this, or am I just doing it wrong?

Answer 1

public class ServicesTest extends TestBase {

   public static class TestLogon{

       @Test
       public void testLogonRequest() throws Exception {
         //My Test Code
       }
   }
}

Making the inner class static works for me.
