Mini “discovery”: how to run all tests from within Eclipse!

For quite some time I’ve been unaware of the possibility to run all JUnit tests from within Eclipse. I thought the only way it could be done (besides using Maven etc) was to manually create test suites. What I’ve done “wrong” is just doing a “Run as JUnit test” on the packages. Turns out you can also do thins on a source folder, causing every JUnit test in that folder to execute! :)

Groovy++ ?

Just a short Sunday blog post :-)

I just noticed a link popping up on Twitter from @DZone with the message; “Will Groovy spell the end of Scala?”. Following the link it turned out that it actually wasn’t Groovy, but Groovy++. Groovy++ introduces static typing without losing the dynamic benefits and powers. Read more in the blog post and also check out this article on Groovy++.

In the blog post there is also a link to a podcast show named Illegal Argument. This show is discussing topics related to Java and the JVM. I haven’t listened to it yet,  but I will!

So I’ve decided to wipe out the previous content of my blog and start over from scratch. Why? Well first of all, no one will miss it. Second, I hope that I will start blogging more in 2010. Mainly as a tool for my personal learning.

Currently this blog is very minimalistic. Both when it comes to content and design. Hopefully both will enhance and expand from now on!
