HelloI am working as a developer on a web-application, that uses Alfresco as a core on the serverside to handle users, registration, content etc. As a test driven programmer, I would like to white-box test my code.So, my question is - how do we get started writing unit tests for our bean-code?

Probably the best examples to look at are:
1. Alfresco's own JUnit tests
2. the SDK example projects (eg. FirstFoundationClient)
which demonstrate how to bootstrap a minimal Alfresco repository outside of a servlet container.

The Alfresco source code (which includes both of the above) is available from our public Subversion server - details on how to access this are at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_SVN_Development_Environment.

I browsed trough the sample project that come with the SDK.
One of them contained a JUnit test - the SDK Custom Aspect contains a JUnit test.
I tried to run it, and it failed, the stack trace below the post.
Obviously - I did miss something about the setup?
So - how can I run a JUnit test straight from my IDE (eclipse).
I use WindowsXP/OSX (depends on mood), try to run on the localhost with an MySQL installation.

Best,
Agata

I am having the same problem. Did you ever get an answer to this?

For example I'm running the LockServiceImplTest from Eclipse at the moment.

Select the unit test in Eclipse and Right click on it. Then Run As Junit test. 😎

The only thing I fiddle with is the project class path to include my Tomcat shared folder which contains my configuration settings, without that it would use the default settings.
