In my previous note about QuantumDB, I explained how to use an SQL database within Eclipse. But now, the question is how to automate the run of a SQL script using Ant...
Note: to illustrate this, we will use a MySQL datatbase but it's the same idea with another database.

This note explains how to perform HTML unit tests within eclipse using HtmlUnit. HtmlUnit is a java unit testing framework for testing web based applications. It is a member of the JUnit family. This method work for any kind of web development project, not only Java ones but also PHP projects for example, as we are testing the HTML as it appears on the client side.
In this article we will also see how to integrate these tests with Ant.

One big strength of Eclipse compared to other IDE (ok, no name) is that Eclipse is language-agnostic so that you can use Eclipse in many programming languages or development frameworks. To prove that quality, I have written 4 Hello World! programs using Eclipse and using 4 different languages: Java, Ant (ok, it's tool rather than a language), PHP and Ruby on Rails. The level of integration with Eclipse is not the same for every languages, but the language-agnostic promise is respected. |
