Notes on the code base

Algorithm contract

MUST have public constructors (not package-local, i.e. without explicit modifier)

Skipping tests involving the frontend or GESIS' network

1. Add code to tests to mark them as remote

public class FooTest {
    @Test
    public void myFooTest() throws Exception
    {
        Assume.assumeNotNull(System.getProperty("infolisRemoteTest"));
    }
}

This will skip the test unless the infolisRemoteTest system property is set to true

2. If remote tests should be executed

Set the system property infolisRemoteTest:

java .... -DinfolisRemoteTest=true

In Eclipse: Run -> Run Configurations -> Arguments -> VM arguments

Replace infolisRemoteTest with gesisRemoteTest for tests requiring a connection from within GESIS.
