I have set up eclipse to work just as I want with my java web app using the following instructions : https://stackoverflow.com/a/6189031/106261.
Is it also possible to get unit tests to be run as part of the auto build, without running a maven install (or test). So I make a change to a class, the tests get run, and if a fail occurs I get a some sort of indicator. Without needing to manually run maven test.
There are several ways to achieve this, all with their own limitations:
You could set up a CI server which builds your project every time you commit a new version. Very reliable but not really “real time”
You can add your own builder to the list of builders (project properties -> Builders), for example an Ant builder which runs “ant test” or something. This builder gets invoked every time you save. Every time. That means Eclipse will become a total slug unless running your unit tests takes less than a few milliseconds.
You can use one of the plugins mentioned here: Is it possible to run incremental/automated JUnit testing in Eclipse?
