A multi-language testing extension for Visual Studio Code that supports Java (Maven/JUnit), Angular (Jasmine/Karma), and Python (unittest).

• Multi-Language Support: Automatically detects workspace type and runs appropriate tests

  • Java: Maven + JUnit
  • Angular: Jasmine + Karma
  • Python: unittest

• Unified Test Interface: Consistent webview UI across all language types

• Detailed Test Results: View test outcomes with:

  • Pass/Fail/Skip status
  • Test duration
  • Failure messages
  • Expected vs Actual values for failed assertions

• Sidebar Integration: Easy access via dedicated Activity Bar icon

1. Create a .lab.json file in your workspace root with the following content:

   {
     "workspaceType": "Java"
   }

   Valid values for workspaceType:

   • "Java" - For Java/Maven projects with JUnit tests
   • "Angular" - For Angular projects with Jasmine/Karma tests
   • "Python" - For Python projects with unittest tests

   Note: If .lab.json is not found or invalid, the extension will default to Python and display a warning.

2. (Optional) Set environment variables for telemetry:

   • TELEMETRY_AI_KEY: Application Insights instrumentation key

     • Windows: set TELEMETRY_AI_KEY=your-key-here
     • Linux/Mac: export TELEMETRY_AI_KEY=your-key-here

   • TELEMETRY_ENDPOINT: Custom telemetry endpoint URL (defaults to Azure Application Insights)

     • Windows: set TELEMETRY_ENDPOINT=https://your-endpoint.com/v2/track
     • Linux/Mac: export TELEMETRY_ENDPOINT=https://your-endpoint.com/v2/track

3. Open your project in VS Code

4. Click on the Cloud IDE Test icon in the Activity Bar (left sidebar)

1. Open the test view from the sidebar
2. Click the "Run Tests" button
3. View results in the webview panel

• Maven installed and available in PATH
• JUnit tests configured in pom.xml

• Node.js and npm installed
• Jasmine/Karma configured
• test script in package.json

• Python 3 installed and available in PATH as python3
• Test files must be located in src/test folder
• Test files must contain "test" in the filename (e.g., test_example.py, example_test.py, my_tests.py)
• Tests following unittest conventions (built-in, no additional dependencies)
• Optional: pytest (will be used as fallback if unittest is not available)

This extension uses a combination of configuration file and environment variables:

Place a .lab.json file in your workspace root with the following structure:

{
  "workspaceType": "Java"
}

• workspaceType (optional, defaults to Python): Determines which test framework to use
  • Valid values: "Java", "Angular", or "Python"

• TELEMETRY_AI_KEY (optional): Azure Application Insights instrumentation key for telemetry
• TELEMETRY_ENDPOINT (optional): Custom telemetry endpoint URL

The extension will activate successfully even if .lab.json is not found. It will default to Python and display a warning message in the webview.
