System property to avoid test-on-load

Closed this issue · 4 comments

#372, while closed, remains a real issue for users of various tools e.g. tools.namespace, Eastwood, refactor-nrepl, CIDER - anything "runtime based" really which is a pretty broad spectrum of choices today!

The issue suggests touching a .midje file, however that is a global side-effect that can easily alter a given user's actual preference.

So something like a Java System property would be cleaner.

Example use case:

  • First, I (System/setProperty "midje.test-on-load" "false")
  • Then, I run Eastwood analysis
  • Finally, I set (System/setProperty "midje.test-on-load" ,,,) to whatever it was before.

Would you be so kind to implement this simple tweak?

Thanks - V

good idea! Would be really cool to be able to more easily use things like eastwood on codebases with midje tests.

Does #483 do the trick for you?

Looks excellent to me! 🙌🍻

cool, deployed as 1.10.6

This worked like a charm - I set the "-Dmidje.check-after-creation=false" property before running Eastwood and it no longer runs tests.

Thanks again!
