Hi Laurent,
I have been playing with the Autotest tool and it's quite cool!
One major enhancement suggestion.
Let's say we have a test method defined as such:
testWhatever
^self somethingElse or: [self testSomethingDifferent].
Removing the method #somethingElse or #testSomethingDifferent from the system won't trigger the listener to run the test #testWhatever since you only check for new methods and modified methods.
But what happens if we remove a method (called from a test method) and that would break the test? I think this should be handled as well.
Besides, another suggestion, why wouldn't we queue the modified methods events instead of ignoring them when the current process is still running a test and has not yet completed?
I also suggest that logging should include the test result (not only time & method name).
Finally, thanks for such a great tool!
