The New and Noteworthy document for 6.5 states that a long-awaited feature of being able to re-run a single failed JUnit test is finally available: http://wiki.netbeans.org/NewAndNoteWorthyNB65#section-NewAndNoteWorthyNB65-RunDebugSingleJUnitTestMethod However it does not appear to actually be included in the 6.5 final release. I am therefore marking as P1 in accordance with bug priority guidelines, since it was an advertised feature and meets the requirement of "Product feature does not work, no workaround exists". To reproduce: 1. Open a NetBeans Platform project which has a module containing unit tests. This may affect other project types as well, although I work mainly with platform applications. 2. Edit one of the JUnit testcases and modify one of its tests so it will fail. 3. Run the testcase. I did so by right-clicking the node for the testcase in the project view and then choosing "Run file" from the context menu, but other ways are possible and can likely be used to reproduce the problem. 4. The JUnit Test Result window shows that the test modified in step 2 fails. 5. Right click the failed test method. I expect a context menu with items "Run again" and "Debug" to appear as shown in the New and Noteworthy document, but there is no context menu whatsoever nor any other obvious way in which to run the single failed test. Information about my configuration from the Help->About window: Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.5 (Build 200811100001) Java: 1.6.0_10; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b15 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb) Userdir: C:\Documents and Settings\twheeler\.netbeans\6.5
Also, the JavaHelp distributed with NetBeans has a page entitled "Running a JUnit Test" that described how to run a single test method. The instructions there do not work either (the right-click it describes does not yield a context menu).
Although the New and Noteworthy document shows a screenshot of re-running a failed test, the text in the document advertises the feature of being able to run a single test (failed or otherwise). I have changed the summary of this issue to reflect the fact that neither case works in 6.5.
