Problem: 'I cannot see the testing window.'

• Make it visible via 'View -> Tools -> CDD Output'

Problem: 'Is there some kind of CDD log window?'

• Yes there is it is called 'CDD Output'. If you don't see this window, you can make it visible via '"View -> Tools -> CDD Output"'

Problem: 'I am trying to use CDD on an existing project but it doesn't work'

• If you have a look at the 'CDD output' window you will probably find the error message:

Error code: VSCN
Configuration error: cluster has two classes with the same name.
What to do: if both classes are needed, change name of one of them.

Cluster name: erl_g_tests
First class: CDD_INTERPRETER
First file: "/home/aleitner/src/erl_g/src/erl_g/cdd_tests/erl_g/cdd_interpreter.e"
Second class: CDD_INTERPRETER
Second file: "/home/aleitner/src/erl_g/library/cdd_tests/erl_g_library/cdd_interpreter.e"

To fix this go to the project settings, to your active target, Groups -> Clusters and then select your root cluster. Open the Advanced tree-item and click on the value part of the Exclude Rules. Now add rule '/cdd_tests$' and click 'OK'.

Alternatively you can open your ecf file with a text editor. You will find a stance that looks like this:

<file_rule>
   <exclude>/.svn$</exclude>
   <exclude>/EIFGENs$</exclude>
</file_rule>

Edit edit to make it looks like the following:

<file_rule>
   <exclude>/.svn$</exclude>
   <exclude>/EIFGENs$</exclude>
   <exclude>/cdd_tests$</exclude>
</file_rule>

Problem: 'I have written or extracted a test case. How can I execute it?'

• All tests are executed in the background right after compiling automatically. You can choose to enable or disable background testing via the 'Enable/Disable automatic background execution of tests'.
