In general I agree, although I'm trying to figure out how important the 'strictly' part is. I guess you could think of this failure as just the default test in TestCase; if there are no other tests, a default test is run that always fails. > I see no need to mark the lack of tests with a failure: one. > it's misleading; Why is it misleading? The failure message seems fairly clear (although clarity is one thing there's always room for more of): Loaded suite TC Started Failure!!! run: No tests were run. Finished in 0.0 seconds. 0 tests, 0 assertions, 1 failures, 0 errors The one thing about it that I think IS misleading is that, if you bundle up an empty TestCase with a non-empty TestCase and run them together, you won't get a failure anymore - the check is only made at the runner level. I need to at the very least make that consistent. > and two, it's inconvenient. I haven't done > it myself, but I would do this: decide my tests for a certain > class are no longer valid, delete them, but leave the shell > (the TestCase) there so I can create some new ones in the future. I both agree and disagree with the inconvenience of it. Yes, if you keep around a lot of unused TestCases, it would be somewhat inconvenient, but I'm not sure that's a practice that ought to be supported. As an XP'er, I'd say, "YAGNI!" and delete the TestCase as soon as it's empty, knowing that it's cinchy to add back. If I know that I'm going to add another test to that TestCase in a minute, then the failure is a boon, because it keeps me from getting distracted and forgetting to add the test. I guess what I'm saying is that the failure wouldn't hurt my way of working, and might even help it sometimes. It's not my goal, however, to impose my development methodology on others, so it could very well be that this ought to go. > I suggest emitting a warning in hte event of an empty > TestCase. Warnings in tests are too mushy for me; I want red or green, true or false. I'm much more inclined to drop the failure altogether than to add the concept of warnings to the framework. I'm leaning towards leaving the failure, but making it more consistent as noted above. My mind isn't really made up yet, though, so I'd like to hear some more on this first (if there are any other opinions).
