Class TestSuite

  +--junit.framework.TestSuite
All Implemented Interfaces:
Test
Direct Known Subclasses:
ActiveTestSuite

public class TestSuite
extends java.lang.Object
implements Test

A TestSuite is a Composite of Tests. It runs a collection of test cases. Here is an example using the dynamic test definition.

 TestSuite suite= new TestSuite();
 suite.addTest(new MathTest("testAdd"));
 suite.addTest(new MathTest("testDivideByZero"));
 
Alternatively, a TestSuite can extract the tests to be run automatically. To do so you pass the class of your TestCase class to the TestSuite constructor.
 TestSuite suite= new TestSuite(MathTest.class);
 
This constructor creates a suite with all the methods starting with "test" that take no arguments.
