Issue
What I miss the most in IntelliJ compared to Eclipse is the test run history window. Does anything like this exist in IntelliJ? I didn't find it anywhere so far and have looked a few times at least.
In our project we have ~500 integration test cases which take like 5 minutes to run from IDE. Often I have a situation where for e.g. 5 tests fail in 2-3 different classes. I fix something, that should remove failures from first test suite, rerun it to see if it helped and I must rerun all 500 tests to see which classes contained failures earlier. That is really painful. In eclipse I would just lookup those in test history, repair them also and finally run all 500 to check if nothing new camed up.
Is there a plugin out there or do I miss something obvious?
I use IntelliJ 13.
Solution
You can right-click a tab with test results and select the "Pin Tab" option from the context menu. Then further test executions will not overwrite this tab, and you can still refer to it to see which other tests you need to fix.
