Running OFBiz tests without demo data

[Martin Kreidenweis]

Hello,

To do more realistic testing we would like to run our automated tests without the OFBiz demo data load.
So we would like to load our test data with "ant run-install-exttest" and then run the tests for our
components. The problem is that the included OFBiz tests need the demo data to succeed.

Is there some way to split running our tests and OFBiz tests to have them run with a different data
load? So a regular "run-install" for the OFBiz tests and just the exttest load for our test.

What is the recommended test strategy for our scenario?

Is there some other way than running every test suite in every component separately with
"ant run-single-test-suite -Dtest.component=x -Dtest.suiteName=y"?

Thanks
Martin

my suggestion would be to add a new target to run just your tests.
if you need the others tests then you either have to rewrite them to use
data you supply or load demo data.
