JUnit should be the default test framework

[agoncal]

The command arquillian-setup should be optional, but if we use it, JUnit should be the default. At the moment, arquillian-setup asks you which test framework (TestNG or Junit). By default, it shouldn't ask, and use JUnit

[ArqEntity.java]$ arquillian-setup

[0] - testng
[1] - junit

***ERROR*** Test Framework must be specified.
***ERROR*** Test Framework Version must be specified.

Why JUnit in particular?

[agoncal]

Because it's the one most commonly used : http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=junit%2C%20testng&cmpt=q

[bartoszmajsak]

Well that's questionable ;) But I agree there should be the default for convenience.
EDIT: Ok, new keywords are ambiguous :)

[agoncal]

Well, one or the other, really. A default would be great as more and more Forge commands have defaults (less typing) and it would be good if Arquillian also had more defaults

[bartoszmajsak]

Sure, I was trying to be a smartass today ;) I assume we are still talking about 1.x? If that's for 2.x I guess we will need to first bring the changes to this repository.

I will have a look at it this weekend.

Cheers!

@bartoszmajsak yea, very questionable.. I always prefer cucumber salad over junit coding.. ;)

[agoncal]

All these issues are about 2.x

[aslakknutsen]

@bartoszmajsak comments are based on this branch; https://github.com/aslakknutsen/plugin-arquillian/tree/forge2

I will push it to upstream master. Just gotta get the test suite fully functional again

[bartoszmajsak]

@aslakknutsen can you create a label for 2.x so that we can categorize issues?

[aslakknutsen]

@bartoszmajsak it exists :)

[aslakknutsen]

@bartoszmajsak 2.0 milestone

[gastaldi]

Now in the correct thread: i agree that JUnit should be the default choice. Who uses TestNG nowadays? ;)

[aslakknutsen]

As @bartoszmajsak pointed out, the list is actually a a lot longer then those two option. Those two are just the ones that are currently built in.

Maybe it would make sense to split them somehow.. (especially when we integrate all extensions in general)

Instead of 'setup arquillian', then user could give some pre hint to what h's trying to do, e.g.;

arquillian-test-bdd-functional-frontend <-- (named just to make the command complicated atm)
