User Profile

User can specify default values for RedDeer execution parameters and Virtual Machine arguments for new RedDeer Test run configuration created either via dialog invoked choosing Run > Run Configuration... menu or via right click on RedDeer test within Package explorer and choosing Run As > RedDeer Test context menu

These default values are specified for particular user and will be used across all Eclipse workspaces used by user.

To define user specific default values for RedDeer Test run configuration just created file simple properties file called .reddeer directly in user home directory. This file should contain all RedDeer execution parameters and their respective default values user want to have properly initialized.

User could use one special property vmArgs and this property could specify arguments for Virtual Machine of running test. These arguments will be added to VM arguments on Arguments tab of run configuration.
