###Code Explorer
The VBE's Project Explorer was nice... in 1999. Get the same bird's eye view of your project and navigate anywhere, with the Code Explorer dockable toolwindow:
This tree view drills down to member level, so not only you can see modules with their properties, functions and procedures, you also get to see a module's fields, constants, enums (and their members) and user-defined types (and their members) - without having to bring up the object browser.
###To-do Items
Ever wish you had a task list built into the VBA IDE? You don't have to wish anymore: it's here! Rubberduck searches your code for TODO:
comments (or whatever you configure as "todo" markers) and displays them all in a convenient dockable toolwindow. Double-click on an item in the list to navigate to that location in the code.
Rubberduck comes with default markers and priority levels, but that's 100% configurable.
###Test Explorer
Fully integrated unit testing, with zero boiler plate code (a little comment doesn't really count, right?). Use late-binding to create a Rubberduk.AssertClass
object, or let Rubberduck automatically add a reference to its type library, and start writing unit tests for your VBA code:
'@TestModule
Private Assert As New Rubberduck.AssertClass
'@TestMethod
Public Sub MyMethodReturnsTrue()
Assert.IsTrue MyMethod
End Sub
Public Sub TestReferenceEquals()
Dim collection1 As New Collection
Dim collection2 As Collection
Set collection2 = collection1
Assert.AreSame collection1, collection2
End Sub
The '@TestModule
marker is merely a hint to tell Rubberduck to search that module for test methods; the '@TestMethod
marker isn't needed if the method starts with the word Test
.
The Test Explorer dockable toolwindow lists all tests found in all opened VBProjects, and makes it easy to add new test modules and methods - and run them:
Find various code issues in your code - and fix them, with just a few clicks!
In the event where you would have too many docked windows, Rubberduck offers you a toolbar to quickly navigate and fix code issues:
###Refactorings
Clean up VBA code by extracting methods, renaming identifiers, etc.
###GitHub/Source Control Integration
Push VBA code to your favorite GitHub repository in separate code files, and pull commits into the IDE, straight from the IDE.
