Plugin Tests not Running
Reported by Adam Elliot | March 16th, 2009 @ 07:21 AM | in 2.x
I'm not sure if this is a bug or I'm not using the feature set as intended, but I'm having issues executing test cases right from my plugin. It appears things aren't running as expected right from the get go (script/generate plugin blah).
Here's what's going on. I've generated a new plugin (rails 2.3rc2, but I've tried this on 2.2.2 and it does the same thing):
script/generate plugin blah
When I switch to the plugins folder and run the default tests:
cd vendor/plugins/blah
rake test
It loads all the tests, but none of them actually run. If I change the default test to:
test "the truth" do
assert false
end
It doesn't fail.
If I run rake test:plugins from RAILS_ROOT the
tests fail, but it also loads portions of the application code,
which is undesirable. Should rake test work in the
plugin's folder or am I misunderstanding things?
Thanks, Adam

(removing the duplicate tag because the link provided links to this same ticket, and I couldn't find an obvious duplicate via search)
I believe this is caused by the fact that activesupport/testcase never actually requires 'test/unit', which has the hooks to run your test.
This may be a conscious decision to prevent clashing with plugins that wish to use other testing frameworks, although if that's the case then they probably shouldn't be requiring activesupport/testcase either.
I've attached a simple patch to fix this, and hopefully make it clearer.
