Performing Regression Testing

Jtest performs regression testing, along with all other appropriate types of testing, each time that you test a class or set of classes that has already been tested at least once.

To perform regression testing:

1. Open the appropriate UI for your test. The Class Testing UI is used to test a single class; the Project Testing UI is used to test a set of files.
   • The Class Testing UI opens by default when Jtest is launched.
   • The Project Testing UI can be opened by clicking the Class Testing UI's Project Button.
2. Restore previously saved test parameters by doing one of the following:
   • Choosing File> Open, then selecting the appropriate .ctp (for class test parameters) or .ptp (for project test parameters) file in the file chooser.
   • (For recently accessed tests) Choosing File> Open Recent> [File Name].
3. Run the test by clicking the Start button.

Regression errors found will be reported in the Specification and Regression Errors branch of the Errors Found Panel (if you tested a single class) or the Results Panel (if you tested a project).
