Thank You for the advice, I'll do it :working: :-)
The "problem" is that I'd like to print out additional test cases info into the final Junit report, something like description, input data&format and more but I haven't found a solution to do it directly from the JUnit library. So now I accompained all test case methods with an optional wired description built upon a custom annotation class tag. Something to use later during JUnit report generation for printing out some aggregated data used for testing (input data and format, objectives and more). A more sophiticated way to do this, which I'd like to do, would be to getting this info directly from test method associated javadoc taglet. This sample report shows what I am working on: http://www.nabble.com/file/p15390708/6_TestBigRationalFraction.html 6_TestBigRationalFraction.html Pratically I would like that JUnit report generator was unaware of specific additional tags like "FUNCTIONAL/REGRESSIVE, DESCRIPTION, INPUT DATA". It might only process this info as an additional tag to nest into for later XSLT processing on customized report generator stylesheet. For this I believe that I need a way to pass additional params from build.xml ...
