JUnit 5: How to support dynamic tests?

[janschaefer]

It is unclear at the moment how dynamic tests should by supported by JGiven, as JUnit 5 provides no life-cycle hooks for them. Any suggestions are welcome!

Suggestion No 1: open a bug with JUnit5 :-) but maybe suggestion No 2 could allow to explore some scenarios first to make a point.

Suggestion No 2: I had cases where I wrapped lambdas with a static function. It would look like this:

dynamicTest("1st dynamic test", wrapForJGiven(() -> assertTrue(true)))

JGiven could first prepare whatever is necessary, then call the lambda, and afterwards clear up after the lambda. This could offer some basic lifecycle handling. But I how would you take it from here? But I see that you might want to grab the first parameter "1st dynamic test", wouldn't you?

[janschaefer]

Maybe JGiven could provide a method dynamicJGivenTest that is just a wrapper around dynamicTest. That might even be easy to implement.

Like that - and you can capture the first argument as well.
