Can I use jtracert to sequence diagram a unit test running in eclipse?

Question

How would I go about using jtracert to sequence diagram a junit test being run within eclipse?

Answer 1

In the "Run" dialog, select your JUnit configuration and go the "Arguments" tab. Add jTracert parameters to "VM arguments" section (something like -javaagent:/home/dmitrybedrin/work/jtracert/deploy/jTracert.jar)

Click on "Run" button.

You will see the following in the "Console" tab:

jTracert agent started Waiting for a connection from jTracert GUI on port 7007

Now execute jTracert gui and connect to the jTracert agent.

That's it - you will see the sequence diagrams now!

Answer 2

There's a small mistake in my previous answer - you should specify -javaagent:/home/dmitrybedrin/work/jtracert/deploy/jTracert.jar=7007 to "VM arguments" section.
