Constructor Detail

TestGenerator

public TestGenerator(TestGenerationConfiguration configuration,
             IRecordingSession recordingSession,
             ITestGeneratorLog log)
              throws CoreException

Instantiates a new test generator.

Parameters:

configuration - The specification of the test generation.

log - A log where any message will be reported during the test generation.

Throws:

CoreException

Method Detail

generateTest

public LTTest generateTest(IProgressMonitor monitor)
                    throws CoreException

Performs test generation and returns the main output test (i.e. the test without any split). This is a long running operation, that should be typically run in a workspace operation that (at least) includes the files returned by TestGenerator.getOutputFiles().

Parameters:

monitor - A progress monitor.

Returns:

The main test that was generated, or null if the operation was cancelled.

Throws:

CoreException - If a problem occurs, because of I/O issue, because the recording session is invalid, or because a contributor (test generator or converter) reported a fatal error.

getOutputFiles

public List<IFile> getOutputFiles()

Returns the files generated by the test generation process. This method can be called even before test generation occurs.

Returns:

the files generated by the test generation process. This list may be empty if no output has been specified (see TestGenerationConfiguration.NO_FILE_OUTPUT_PROPERTY).

getConfiguration

public final TestGenerationConfiguration getConfiguration()

Returns the test generation configuration performed by this test generator.

Returns:

the test generation configuration performed by this test generator.
