Migrating to TestNG by Hani Suleiman.
So the Jordanian pilot actually makes a contribution to the world rather than just perpetually bitching about everyone else?
Well actually, yes. Overall its a nice concise article that describes what it advertises.
There are some flaws with the focus though, some of which might make "the baby jesus cry hot tears of rage and anger while biting off the nearest nipple". Hani starts off saying he wont succumb to comparing Junit and TestNG as thats well covered in other articles. This article, he explains, is just going to be about migration. Then he promptly proceeds to point out all the "weaknesses" in JUnit which are illustrated by the migration. Yes its snuck in there as related to the migration (and I completely agree with the weaknesses) but it seems extraneous unless you just damn well admit you want to go ahead and make the comparisons. Just cop to it, dont pretend to be above all that and then do it anyway, jackass. (And yeah this is a somewhat weak bile, but its the only thing that struck from the article as worthy of any consternation at all, even if just a little.)
UPDATE: Cedric has updated the TestNG Eclipse plugin to "quick fix" JUnit tests - convert them to TestNG. You can use real annotations (JSR175) or javadoc.
