Battel dev java testing template

This template is made in order to simplify the test phase during the BattleDev contests. In order to make use of it, follow the steps below :

1. Download the zip file that contains the input and the output files for each case, each test case input file should be named input{n}.txt where {n} is the order of the test case, for example input1.txt. The same goes for the test case output files : output{n}.txt.
2. Create a test class by extending the AbstractTestClass and override the two methods : getClassToBeTested and getTestCasesFilesLocation :

• The first stands for the class that contains the main method that solves the exercise.
• The second one stands for the prefix that you have given to the location where the test cases files are located.

NEW :

you can put the ZIP file directly in the dedicated directory, the tests will read the inputs and the expected outputs from that file, when using .zip files, don't forget to override the useZipAsInputOutPutFiles method to return true.

For example :

public class TestContestA extends AbstractTestClass {
  @Override
  protected Class getClassToBeTested() {
  return musta.belmo.battledev.a.IsoContest.class;
 }

  @Override
  protected String getTestCasesFilesLocation() {
  return new java.io.File("BATTLE-DEV/1").getAbsolutePath();
 }

 // if you want to use a zip file while testing
  @Override
     public boolean useZipAsInputOutPutFiles() {
         return true;
     }
}

You can put files in every location you want, the example above requires that the BATTLE-DEV folder is in the same directory as the java project one.
