Stuff to do before tests can be build and executed This is about qa-functional tests - unit tests normally work without problems. - install xtest, junit, jemmy and jellytools as plugins to be on the safe side: all of those you can get, look in beta-update center; caution! In NetBeans 6.1 tests fail with some obscure problem when plugins are installed in shared layer: install as normal user - edit nbproject/project.properties uncomment everything needed for building and executing the tests: can be tricky, what is needed depends on the NetBeans version; consider restarting NetBeans to activate everything - edit test/build.xml point to the right directory for xtest and netbeans user directory - edit test/qa-functional/src/org/openoffice/extensions/test/Test.properties point to the Apache OpenOffice and Apache OpenOffice SDK installation directories - happy testing
