Class TestListener

java.lang.Object
  org.unitils.core.TestListener

public abstract class TestListener
extends java.lang.Object

Listener for test events. The events must follow following ordering:

• [Unitils] beforeTestClass - TestClass1
• [Test] testBeforeClass - TestClass1 (not for JUnit3)
• [Unitils] afterCreateTestObject - TestClass1
• [Unitils] beforeTestSetUp - TestClass1
• [Test] testSetUp - TestClass1
• [Unitils] beforeTestMethod - TestClass1 - test1
• [Test] testMethod - TestClass1 - test1
• [Unitils] afterTestMethod - TestClass1 - test1
• [Test] testTearDown - TestClass1
• [Unitils] afterTestTearDown - TestClass1
• [Unitils] afterCreateTestObject - TestClass1 (not for TestNG)
• [Unitils] beforeTestSetUp - TestClass1
• [Test] testSetUp - TestClass1
• [Unitils] beforeTestMethod - TestClass1 - test2
• [Test] testMethod - TestClass1 - test2
• [Unitils] afterTestMethod - TestClass1 - test2
• [Test] testTearDown - TestClass1
• [Unitils] afterTestTearDown - TestClass1
• [Test] testAfterClass - TestClass1 (not for JUnit3)

The after methods will always when the before counterpart has run (or begun). For example if an exception occurs during the beforeTestSetup method, the afterTestTearDown method will still be called.

Is implemented as an abstract class with empty methods instead of an interface, since most implementations only need to implement a small subset of the provided callback methods.

Method Summary

void	afterCreateTestObject(java.lang.Object testObject) Invoked before any of the test in a test class are run.
void	afterTestMethod(java.lang.Object testObject, java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod, java.lang.Throwable testThrowable) Invoked after the test run but before the test tear down (e.g.
void	afterTestTearDown(java.lang.Object testObject, java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod) Invoked after the test tear down (eg @After).
void	beforeTestClass(java.lang.Class<?> testClass) Invoked before the generic class setup (e.g.
void	beforeTestMethod(java.lang.Object testObject, java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod) Invoked before the test but after the test setup (eg @Before) is run.
void	beforeTestSetUp(java.lang.Object testObject, java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod) Invoked before the test setup (eg @Before) is run.

public TestListener()

Method Detail

beforeTestClass

public void beforeTestClass(java.lang.Class<?> testClass)

Invoked before the generic class setup (e.g. @BeforeClass) is performed.

Parameters:

testClass - The class whose test methods are about to be executed, not null

afterCreateTestObject

public void afterCreateTestObject(java.lang.Object testObject)

Invoked before any of the test in a test class are run. This can be overridden to for example add test-class initialization.

Parameters:

testObject - The test class, not null

beforeTestSetUp

public void beforeTestSetUp(java.lang.Object testObject,
                            java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod)

Invoked before the test setup (eg @Before) is run. This can be overridden to for example initialize the test-fixture.

Parameters:

testObject - The test instance, not null

testMethod - The test method, not null

beforeTestMethod

public void beforeTestMethod(java.lang.Object testObject,
                             java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod)

Invoked before the test but after the test setup (eg @Before) is run. This can be overridden to for example further initialize the test-fixture using values that were set during the test setup.

Parameters:

testObject - The test instance, not null

testMethod - The test method, not null

afterTestMethod

public void afterTestMethod(java.lang.Object testObject,
                            java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod,
                            java.lang.Throwable testThrowable)

Invoked after the test run but before the test tear down (e.g. @After). This can be overridden to for example add assertions for testing the result of the test. It the before method or the test raised an exception, this exception will be passed to the method.

Parameters:

testObject - The test instance, not null

testMethod - The test method, not null

testThrowable - The throwable thrown during the test or beforeTestMethod, null if none was thrown

afterTestTearDown

public void afterTestTearDown(java.lang.Object testObject,
                              java.lang.reflect.Method testMethod)

Invoked after the test tear down (eg @After). This can be overridden to for example perform extra cleanup after the test.

Parameters:

testObject - The test instance, not null

testMethod - The test method, not null
