Is This Project Still Active?

Is CFUnit still actively maintained? There haven't been any releases or updates to the website in 2 years. These are some modifications to CFUnit that I think would make it more usuable: * Adding an argument to the TestSuite class to specify a single test method to run. This is useful when you're developing a test, or curious about a single test, and don't want to run the entire suite. * Modified TestRunner.cfc to stream a list of tests as they're run. This is useful when running large suites, since CFUnit's default behavior is show no status at all. * A template listing all test classes and functions, to allow user selection of specific suite/method to run.

CFUnit was a dead project before the current owner resurrected it. cfcUnit has died off (Paul's not doing CFML these days). MXUnit is very actively developed (and has a mode to run CFUnit tests pretty much unchanged, I believe). > * Adding an argument to the TestSuite class to specify a single test method to run.

MXUnit provides most (all?) of that, I believe. They're also looking at adding annotations to allow you to run specific groups of tests, as well as dependent groups of tests (a la TestNG). The MXUnit team have big plans :) -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood

So I should either change this list to ColdFusion Unit Testing or MXUnit. On Tue, Feb 24, 2009 at 11:02 AM, Sean Corfield <seancorfield@gmail.com>wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

I still try to focus on CFUnit, but I have not upgraded it in a while. It is still active and I do still try to support it as requests for help or support come in. However, I think changing the name to "ColdFusion Unit Testing" would be best. There are other frameworks out there, and I have seen what the MXUnit folks have done, and its a very nice product. -- Rob Blackburn ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----
