+Contributors + +- [Christoph Läubrich ](https://github.com/laeubi) +
+ +PDE previously has created JUnit Plugin-test launches with some broad inclusion settings and defaults that do not always fit different project setups. +From now on, it uses a more minimal approach when creating new JUnit Plugin-test launches by default that is only selecting the test-plugin and leverage +the option to include all required dependencies automatically. + +This results in much smaller launches that start up faster and do not pull in everything in your workspace by default what is especially a problem when +many independent components in a workspace are to be tested. + +Beside of this it is now possible to configure the used default settings for new launches to adapt to individual needs, because of this +we **strongly recommend** you review these settings and make sure they fit your needs after an upgrade. + +![New PDE Launch Settings](images/pde_junit_launch_config.png) + +As this only affects new launches, you either need to adapt existing launches or delete older ones so they are created with fresh settings on the next run, +if you find any issues or difficulties using this feature don't hesitate to let us know and open an [issue](https://github.com/eclipse-pde/eclipse.pde/issues) +or a new [discussion](https://github.com/eclipse-pde/eclipse.pde/discussions). + ### OSGi Test Framework Support
