This feature is only supported in the Ultimate edition.
IntelliJ IDEA supports the versions 0.9 and 4 of
FlexUnit
,
a unit testing framework for Flex and ActionScript applications and libraries.
For running FlexUnit tests, there is a dedicated run/debug configuration type
(
FlexUnit).
The FlexUnit-specific tasks are briefly outlined below. For general instructions, see Performing Tests.
-
Download and decompress the archive containing FlexUnit libraries.
(The corresponding archives (
.zip) are available, for example, on the FlexUnit Downloads page.
The archive name, normally, starts with flexunit.)The only file that you'll need is the core FlexUnit library (
.swc). Depending on the FlexUnit version, this file may be calledFlexUnit.swc,flexunit-4.0.0.swc,flexunit-4.1.0-8-as3_4.1.0.16076.swc,flexunit-core-flex-4.1.0-beta1.64-sdk4.0.0.14159.swcor something similar. - Though this isn't really necessary, it might be useful to define the core FlexUnit library as a global or project library. This will let you use this library in many projects or modules.
- Add the core FlexUnit library to dependencies of one or more of the build configurations. See To manage build configurations and their settings, follow these steps and Build Configuration Page for a Flash Module.
- Make one of these build configurations active. This will ensure that the code in your tests is highlighted properly. See To select an active build configuration, follow these steps.
