Description Petr Jiricka 2005-03-18 10:23:17 UTC 
Currently, when running a file (Shit+F6) in the Test Sources, the project
attempts to run the currently selected class using JUnit. However, for classes
with main() method which are not JUnit tests, it would be useful to run the
main() method instead.

This has sat dormant for a long time.  Doing this in eclipse (for example) is trivial.  Simply providing the option of
adding the test classpath entries to a run configuration would do the trick...

Another example for the need of a main class under test: stress tests.
