Support for adding a Test at Run-Time

Guillermo Palli — Mon, 12 Aug 2002 20:51:44 -0000

This is a new form that handles the selection of
multiples classes inside a DLL. It also checks the
creation of the clases with a SafeCreateObject method.
In future implementations I whish to see a feature that
let us select multiples dlls to import and also to unload
dlls from the Test Suite selected.

failure to find registry key

Owen Rogers — Fri, 24 Aug 2001 07:46:04 -0000

on some machines, the registry key pointing to the
visual basic templates folder does not exist. the
installation program should prompt for a directory to
install the templates in instead.

red/green while test in progress

Philip Craig — Mon, 13 Aug 2001 10:48:00 -0000

I prefer the JUnit style of showing the red/green bar
while the tests are running, thus immediately giving
the positive/negative colour feedback.

I also hate the MsgBox that says how many tests
passed/failed at the end. I can get all that info from
the bar and from the failure/error count in the status
bar.

Hence, my new, improved, shorter COMUnitRunner.ocx
method:

Private Sub m_oTestResult_AfterEndTest()
UpdateRunsCount
UpdateProgressBar
DoEvents

If (m_oTestResult.WasSuccessful) Then
Call SendMessageLong(pbProgress.hwnd,
PBM_SETBARCOLOR, 0&, RGB(0, 255, 0))
Else
Call SendMessageLong(pbProgress.hwnd,
PBM_SETBARCOLOR, 0&, RGB(255, 0, 0))
End If
End Sub

Can I also suggest shipping Compatibility dlls with
the COMUnit and setting binary compatibility to point
to them? This then makes it easy for users to do
modifications to the COMUnit source and have them
work :-)
