Add support for Jira annotation on the class level.
Closed this issue · 4 comments
It would be great to use Jira annotation on whole class because when I have tests for some component and this component does not work at all I have to add Jira annotation to every test method. It is very annoying.
Currently methods are scanned before tests on any governor annotations and put into register so when some test method is being executed, its execution is resolved against that register.
Arquillian can not skip whole test classes, skipping is done only on method level so even I scan that class, it would try to run these methods but they would be evenutally skipped because test class it belongs to is marked for skipping as such - and this would hold for every method in that class.
However I am not sure what should be done about automatic Jira issue resolving / closing. This bring additional complexity to it because I would close that Jira only in case all methods have passed. While I do not say it is not possible to do, it is just more cumbersome to get right.
As a workaround, just annotate that class with @Ignore maybe? :)
Annotation @Ignore is not suitable for this use case.
What about to check for every test case if it contains @Jira annotation and if not then use class level @Jira annotation? The behaviour would not change. It would be just let's say a syntactic sugar...
When you have two test cases with the same @Jira annotation, does the governor check if both passed before it closes the issue?
to answer your last question: no it does not check both of them.
While I understand your ideas, these are looking quite "easy" but the underlying logic would need to be rewritten. I do not have time for this project anymore. You are totally welcome to add whatever functionality you want and I will gladly review it and merge it.
@basovnik this holds for other issue you had and I did not finish.
