Unit Test performs

Former Member — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 16:18:50 GMT

Hi guys,

I am watching a strange behaviour while running Unit Tests (Abap Unit).

When i perform the tests SE38 -> Menu: Program -> Test -> Unit Test (Ctrl-Shift-F10)

The database rolls back at the end. Nice.

But: if i write out one line to list (e.g. write: / 'blabla'.) the result is different.

Then i have the database rollback skipped.

Probably due to the list processing, which obligizes a db commit when showing up the list.

do you agree? am i wrong?

Regards,

Hartmut

Hello Hartmut,

a unit test must not contain any interactive technique. Especially list commands will cause a popup to appear which will make executing the tests a pain and possibly cause an implict db commit.

The cure to this desease is to avoid list commands.

... there is a single poor "write" statement yet too much list processing causing the db to commit. seems not being mature yet.

Best regards
