Hi logan.moore,

Sorry for a delay with response - was discussing this with the team and wanted to get back to you with some concrete answers :)

First of all thanks for a great idea for improvement.

We've just added it to the next sprint (which is going to be released on August 10-11). We're going to implement both your approaches, and we really think that they would help improving development performance.

Thanks again and please let us know if you have any other ideas, wishes or even development dreams.

Very cool!

I'm getting very used to compiling as a separate action. This, and having my test classes run automatically has me very excited.

Usually when I'm developing features, I want to run all tests to make sure I haven't broken anything somewhere else in code.

When I'm working on a test class, I only want to run that test so I get quick feedback on changes that I'm making.

So perhaps a button "Run All Tests" that skips the test class selection and kicks off a full test run.

HI logan.moore,

We'd like everybody to get used to a separate compile action as in our opinion it's much more productive :)

Regarding "Run All Tests" - there's a limitation that we can't run more than 200 test classes at once. To be honest we've not yet checked how SF itself handles this situation, but this may be a showstopper for this button. However we're changing in this sprint our logic to retrieve tests list, so it'll be much faster (in two words - we won't ask SF for a list of all test classes as a first stage, but we'll build this list based on info in local files with optional ability to retrieve it from SF when needed. We assume that once developer haven't downloaded some test classes - he's not very interested in their results as well).

Hi logan.moore,

Just wanted to let you know (please sorry for a delay) that partially your ideas were implemented in 0.21.13 version released last week.

The only thing left is running tests for the class that is currently opened (currently we're able to run tests from the class that is opened). We have this as well in our future plans but I'm not able to give you any timeline when this will be implemented.

Thanks,

Vladimir
