Project Part 0

Objectives

• To familiarize yourself with the Eclipse Platform.
• To learn how to import and manage projects in Eclipse.
• To understand how to setup and use CVS through Eclipse.
• To review Java programming and start familiarizing yourself with some of the basic Java 1.5 constructs.
• To familiarize yourself with the JUnit testing framework.

Required Problem

1. Make sure you have access to an installed version of Eclipse 3.2.
2. Create a new Java project with a different source and output folder.
3. Import the content of project-0.zip into your new project (right click on your project and select Import | General | Archive File.) You should agree to override the .classpath file.
4. Study the code in the different classes.
5. Execute the test suite:
   1. Right-click on UtilTestSuite.java
   2. Select Run As | JUnit Test. The JUnit testbench should execute and display a red bar (indicating a failing test). You need to enable the assertions to make the test pass:
   3. From the main menu bar, select Run | Run...
   4. In the area on the left, select UtilTestSuite (you can give it a new name if you want).
   5. Select the Arguments tab and add -ea under VM arguments. Click Apply, then Run. Things should be green now.
6. Experiment with the various util classes by writing unit tests for them.
