Re: JUnit testing GWT

Arthur,

These rules are just good OO design - when you are depend on interfaces rather than concrete classes.
One of the pros of following this principles - you can simplify testing by using mocks instead of real objects.
You can read more about why programming to interfaces are so importang.

GWT team offers you MVP (Model View Presenter) pattern - here is a link:
http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideMvpActivitiesAndPlaces.html
You can find how they hide View's behind interfaces, so you can write tests on presenters.

I have a sample project (have not many time for it :( ):
https://simpleworklog.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/simpleworklog/
It's a maven project, you should have no problems with how to configure it.

Please reffer to following test classes as examples of unit-testing:
- AdminDashboardPresenterTest.java
- LoginPresenterTest.java

Hope this helps!

Hi Ignat, thank you for the tip.  I do remember reading that there is
a way to write gwt junit tests in a way that were much faster than the
way I'm doing it now.  I wonder if this is it.

Is there some documentation for how to write unit tests of this
variety?  I searched but didn't come across anything that looked like
what you suggested.
