intellij plugin

Starting with version 0.5.0, weaver provides bespoke intellij support via a plugin that allows to run suites and tests directly from the IDE

Installation

In Intellij, go to preferences > plugins, click on the cog icon and select manage plugin repositories

Add https://disneystreaming.github.io/weaver-test/intellij.xml to the list.

You can now search for the weaver-intellij plugin in the marketplace view

Usage

The plugin requires your project to be using version 0.5.0-RC1 of weaver (or newer). However, despite this requirement, the version of the plugin and the version of the test framework DO NOT NEED TO MATCH.

Running suites

When test suites are open in Intellij, the plugin adds buttons to the left of the editor (next to the line number of the suite declaration) , letting you run individual suites from the IDE.

Running tests

The plugin also attempts to add buttons next on the same lines of tests, in a best-effort fashion, by detecting implicit conversions from String to weaver.TestName. When running tests this way, only tests matching the selected line will run.
