Feature request: Shortcuts

[josericardo]

Hi, the plugin is great. The only thing I miss are shortcuts. At least one for running the tests on the current open file. It's quite tedious to have to use the mouse every time I want to run the tests.

It would be awesome if there was also a shortcut to run the tests for the current file. The name of the test file could be defined by convention. Something like: CurrentClassTest.

Is it possible?

+1. I'm addicted to the "Rerun Test" shortcut for JUnit tests. Would love to have something similar for ScalaTest.

[cheeseng]

agree, we should definitely add them.

+1. I'm so used to mapping F12 to "Run JUnit Test". It would be super cool if I could do the same for ScalaTest.

Yes, this would be really helpful

The fix for the basic launch shortcut commands is pretty simple.

I added this to plugin.xml:

  <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.commands">
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestDebugSuiteCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestDebugSuiteCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.suite.debug">
      </command>
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestDebugTestCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestDebugTestCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.test.debug">
      </command>
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestDebugFileCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestDebugFileCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.file.debug">
      </command>
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestDebugPackageCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestDebugPackageCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.package.debug">
      </command>
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestRunSuiteCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestRunSuiteCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.suite.run">
      </command>
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestRunTestCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestRunTestCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.test.run">
      </command>
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestRunFileCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestRunFileCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.file.run">
      </command>
      <command
            name="%ScalaTestRunPackageCommand.label"
            description="%ScalaTestRunPackageCommand.label"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.debug.ui.category.run"
            id="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.package.run">
      </command>
      
      <keyBinding
            keySequence="M3+M2+X F"
            contextId="org.eclipse.ui.globalScope"
            commandId="org.eclipse.shortcut.scalatest.file.run"
            keyConfigurationId="org.eclipse.ui.defaultAcceleratorConfiguration">
      </keyBinding>
  </extension>

(Only added one keyBinding as an example. Not sure what keySequences will avoid stepping on other plugins. In any case, now that the rest of the commands are defined, users can make their own mappings under General > Keys).

Added to plugin.properties:

ScalaTestDebugSuiteCommand.label = Debug ScalaTest - Suite
ScalaTestDebugTestCommand.label = Debug ScalaTest - Test
ScalaTestDebugFileCommand.label = Debug ScalaTest - File
ScalaTestDebugPackageCommand.label = Debug ScalaTest - Package
ScalaTestRunSuiteCommand.label = Run ScalaTest - Suite
ScalaTestRunTestCommand.label = Run ScalaTest - Test
ScalaTestRunFileCommand.label = Run ScalaTest - File
ScalaTestRunPackageCommand.label = Run ScalaTest - Package

I just modified the org.scala-ide.sdt.scalatest_2.10.0.v-4-2_11-201603171205-8ee752f.jar in my eclipse plugins directory, so I'm happy now. Is anybody still active here and wants to make the change to the repository?
