Simple testcase in zip file

I let NetBeans generate a simple Maven project and let it generate a test class for the generated main class.

In the main class I add an exception. When this exception is thrown during the JUnit test, then I can see the stack trace only in the test window not in the output window.

This stack trace cannot be copied to the clipboard. Hyperlinking is not supported in it.

It would be good if the stack trace could be made more useful.

in output window, there is a hyperlink in the surefire plugin output, when clicked one is shown output of all failing tests along with stacktraces hyperlinked.

the test output window is managed under different component, reassigning

Thanks very much. I did not notice the link. Now I don't need this myself anymore but perhaps it is still useful for others.
