JUnit errors

[Hazza]

I have been trying to run some tests with JUnit in Eclipse, but instead of failures I just get errors, even though there are no errors in the test methods, or the methods of the class I am trying to test?

[PhHein]

Yes!

[Hazza]

Yeah that really helps...

[Hazza]

Answering "yes" to the question doesn't even make sense!

[Tolls]

Neither does your question with the amount of information supplied.
You haven't said what errors you are getting, what your tests look like, what the code they're testing looks like.

"Yes" is about as meaningful an answer as can be expected.

[Hazza]

That's the problem Eclipse won't tell me. If there's an error in the code it will always say when you highlight the big red X but this just tells me theres an error?

[Tolls]

So it's not compiling?
Is that what you're saying?

[Hazza]

I noticed underneath is says java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoudsException: -1

But we haven't covered exceptions yet, so we wouldn't have to catch exceptions in this exercise?

[PhHein]

then you've got a programming error. An arry index of -1 is not possible. Either your test case is injecting invalid values into the code you're testing, or the actual code has flaws.

So back to my first post:
"You haven't said what errors you are getting, what your tests look like, what the code they're testing looks like."

You're expecting us to fly blind here.

You're expecting us to fly blind here.

Is your crystal ball in service again?

[Tolls]

It's in with the mechanic to get repaired.

[Hazza]

Tolls I pm'd you have you seen it yet?

[Tolls]

I don't do PMs.
This is an open forum.

[Hazza]

Yeah but I cant post code from a uni assignment onto a public forum because if they find out they throw you off the course!
