Configurable Categories (issue #307)

[Tibor17]

This is the implementation for a feature of Configurable Categories
https://github.com/KentBeck/junit/issues/307

You can make a narrow list of tests in your build process according to build specifics.
See the test CategoriesConfiguredBySystemPropertiesTest.
There the suite accepts almost all tests of platforms, and the system properties suppress some of them.

Here we use a Set of categories which was necessary in this feature. Not using single values in variables fIncluded either fExcluded in Categories class. See their comments in code.

This way we have built also a prerequisite for #336.

JUnit style is explicit imports

[Tibor17]

ok, i can do this.

[Tibor17]

To be discussed:
file name form "com/Category1.java" : comma separated + slashes is normal maven-surefire style
NO_CATEGORIES empty array

(reasons answered in previous comments)

Hi David,

I saw your update in #340. I would like to participate on that proposal as well, because this feature can go on only if the multiple categories is applicable to it.

BR, Tibor

OK, waiting to review until things settle down on #142

[dsaff]

OK, getting ready to restart review on this pull. Can you make sure the patch still applies to HEAD without merge conflicts?

[Tibor17]

i will check it in two hours

[Tibor17]

all is up-to-date, you can replace the sources

@Tibor17, github is still telling me it doesn't cleanly merge with KentBeck/master. Can you pull KentBeck/master, resolve conflicts, and push? Thanks.

[Tibor17]

@dsaff I will resolve it tomorrow.

@dsaff
My GIT commands closed this pull.
I created #461 instead of this one.
'IncludeExcludeCategory should accept many categories + configurable'
