public class Suite
extends ParentRunner<Runner>

Using Suite as a runner allows you to manually build a suite containing tests from many classes. It is the JUnit 4 equivalent of the JUnit 3.8.x static Test suite() method. To use it, annotate a class with @RunWith(Suite.class) and @SuiteClasses({TestClass1.class, ...}). When you run this class, it will run all the tests in all the suite classes.

Since:

4.0

Nested Class Summary

static interface

Suite.SuiteClasses The SuiteClasses annotation specifies the classes to be run when a class annotated with @RunWith(Suite.class) is run.

Constructor Summary

protected	Suite(Class<?> klass, Class<?>[] suiteClasses) Call this when the default builder is good enough.
protected	Suite(Class<?> klass, List<Runner> runners) Called by this class and subclasses once the runners making up the suite have been determined
	Suite(Class<?> klass, RunnerBuilder builder) Called reflectively on classes annotated with @RunWith(Suite.class)
	Suite(RunnerBuilder builder, Class<?>[] classes) Call this when there is no single root class (for example, multiple class names passed on the command line to JUnitCore
protected	Suite(RunnerBuilder builder, Class<?> klass, Class<?>[] suiteClasses) Called by this class and subclasses once the classes making up the suite have been determined

Method Summary

protected Description	describeChild(Runner child) Returns a Description for child, which can be assumed to be an element of the list returned by ParentRunner.getChildren()
static Runner	emptySuite() Returns an empty suite.
protected List<Runner>	getChildren() Returns a list of objects that define the children of this Runner.
protected void	runChild(Runner runner, RunNotifier notifier) Runs the test corresponding to child, which can be assumed to be an element of the list returned by ParentRunner.getChildren().

Method Detail

emptySuite

public static Runner emptySuite()

Returns an empty suite.

getChildren

protected List<Runner> getChildren()

Description copied from class: ParentRunner

Returns a list of objects that define the children of this Runner.

Specified by:

getChildren in class ParentRunner<Runner>

describeChild

protected Description describeChild(Runner child)

Description copied from class: ParentRunner

Returns a Description for child, which can be assumed to be an element of the list returned by ParentRunner.getChildren()

Specified by:

describeChild in class ParentRunner<Runner>

runChild

protected void runChild(Runner runner,
                        RunNotifier notifier)

Description copied from class: ParentRunner

Runs the test corresponding to child, which can be assumed to be an element of the list returned by ParentRunner.getChildren(). Subclasses are responsible for making sure that relevant test events are reported through notifier

Specified by:

runChild in class ParentRunner<Runner>
