Subject: Is it possible to dynamically extend Test::Unit test cases?

Hello list,

I've got some "normal" test cases that look like this


class Testcases < Test::Unit::TestCase

  def setup
    ...
  end
  def teardown
    ...
  end
  def test_1
    ...
  end
  def test_2
    ...
  end
end


The test cases run as expected, but now I need to add some new test
cases at run time.  What I think I need to do is something like this


require 'testcases'
t = Testcases.new
t.send(:define_method, "test_defined_at_run_time", "")


but I'm getting "wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)" when I try to
create the instance of Testcases.

Is there some way around this?

Thanks in advance

David Mitchell
