CFEclipse's CFUnit features now available

Hello everyone,
I'm happy to announce, and some of you have already noticed, that the new CFUnit View and Wizard is now included in the bleeding edge release of CFEclipse!

To use the new view you need the most recent version of CFUnit (v2.0 Beta 3 or later):
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile … _id=145385

Once you have unzipped this to your site (you just unzip this over you old version of CFUnit), you'll also need to configure CFEclipse to point it to the CFUnit "framework" folder (which contains the façade CFE needs): Window>Preferences then click CFEclipse > CFunit.

I know this is a bit of a manual setup. I hope to make this easier in later versions (maybe a button in CFE that will generate the file(s) if they are missing?).

There is still some work to do with the view too. I've already started work so that when you open a TestCase in the editor it will (optionally) load it into the view so you can run it. I'm also working on some ways to associates ColdFusion files to their test cases, so that when they are opened their test case will load into the view.

I'm also going to be setting it up so that you can execute all the tests in a fold, instead of just one at a time.

One feature that I think is really cool which is already available is that if the test result in an error with a stack trace, you can click on any of the files in the stack trace and it will open that file and jump to that line.

Enjoy!
