Automatic tests are the significant part of development process. Below is the instruction of how to run Openmeetings JUnit tests.

1. running tests using command line:
2. • all tests:
     ant test
   • subset of tests by mask:
     ant -Dtestcases=TestError* test
3. running tests from Eclipse IDE:
4. • ant -Ddb=<your_DB> prepare-eclipse
   • Start Eclipse
   • Load workspace with Openmeetings project (or refresh existing project)
   • Select "Debug Configurations..."

• Create New Junit configuration, give it a name and select test class

• Select Arguments tab
• Add the following code to the VM section
  -javaagent:${workspace_loc:Openmeetings}/build/lib/om/openjpa-bundle-2.2.2.jar -Dom.home=${workspace_loc:Openmeetings}/src/main/webapp -Dbackups.dir=${workspace_loc:Openmeetings}/build/lib/junit/backups
• To avoid temporary files being created in OM root, modify "Working Directory" as follows
  ${workspace_loc:Openmeetings}/build/junit

• Select Debug

• Note: You need a file called "persistence.xml" in src/META-INF if you run the JUnit test from inside Eclipse. Normally "ant prepare-eclipse" should do that for you.
