ABLUnit Runner

A VS Code extension that executes a batch script to initiate ABLUnit test runs and subsequently parses and imports the results into the VS Code Test Results view. The extension is optimized for executing long-running and large-scale unit test suites.

Features

• Seamless ABLUnit Testing: Run ABLUnit tests directly from VS Code and view the results in the Test Results view.
• Flexible Configuration Support: The extension automatically detects and uses your project's configuration. It supports:
  • Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge workspaces: Automatically reads .propath, databaseConnection.xml, and .dbconnection files from an existing Openedge Developer Studio workspace to configure the test environment, allowing you to import and use your existing Developer Studio projects in VS Code without any extra configuration.
  • Riverside Software OpenEdge ABL Extension workspaces: Automatically reads openedge-project.json from the OpenEdge ABL extension project configuration, enabling a smooth integration with an existing VSCode ABL workspace environment.
• Designed for Large and Small Projects: While optimized for large, time-consuming test suites, the extension is equally effective for running single, simple test cases.

Requirements

• Progress OpenEdge 11.7 or later installed
• DLC is resolved in this order of precedence:
  1. a runtime in abl.configuration.runtimes whose name matches the project's openedge-project.json oeversion
  2. the project dlc / DLC value from openedge-project.json
  3. the first available runtime entry in abl.configuration.runtimes
  4. the DLC environment variable

Example:

• Windows: DLC=C:\Progress\OpenEdge
• Linux: DLC=/usr/dlc
