Eclipse plugin doesn’t currently support executing tests from within the IDE - need to use command line. Would be much nicer if something akin to the junit functionality was available, i.e. a visual component to execute tests & show results.

On a more fundamental level, tests currently have to be included in the main application module. Would be better if a separate test “application” could be created, so preventing the main app from including test modules. Not possible today since:

  1. test.app can’t go into project root directory since it causes conflict in application.ini with .app
  2. Can’t put into a sub-dir of root directory as it needs to import domain classes & services. This would require a module import specification such as “../domain/domain.app” - which isn’t legal.
