concordion:run

This new command, contributed by Stein Kåre Skytteren, lets you link to another specification and run it, displaying the link's background in green / red / gray as appropriate.

You might use this to create a page containing a list of all the acceptance tests for a feature, in a similar way you would use a JUnit test suite.

Support for JUnit 4.5

Example syntax:

package spec.examples;

import org.concordion.integration.junit4.ConcordionRunner;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

@RunWith(ConcordionRunner.class)
public class Demo {

    public String greetingFor(String firstName) {
        return String.format("Hello %s!", firstName);
    }
}

Annotations

You can include partially-implemented specifications in your normal build without breaking the build, by annotating your fixture classes with one of the following annotations:

• @ExpectedToPass
• @ExpectedToFail
• @Unimplemented

For example:

import org.concordion.api.ExpectedToFail;
import org.concordion.integration.junit3.ConcordionTestCase;

@ExpectedToFail
public class GreetingTest extends ConcordionTestCase {

   public String greetingFor(String firstName) {
        return "TODO";
   }

See here for an explanation of the semantics of each annotation.

Linked Test Data

A special variable "#HREF" lets you access the href attribute for a link. This can be used when you want to reference test data from a specification. [More details]

concordion:assertTrue

For example:

<p>
    When user <b concordion:set="#firstName">Bob</b>
    logs in, the greeting will be:
    <b concordion:assertEquals="greetingFor(#firstName)">Hello Bob!</b>
</p>

<p>
    The first name <span concordion:assertTrue="#firstName.startsWith(#letter)">starts
    with <b concordion:set="#letter">B</b></span>.
</p>

<p>
    The first name <span concordion:assertTrue="#firstName.startsWith(#letter)">starts
    with <b concordion:set="#letter">C</b></span>.
</p>

Will result in this output:
