Deprectated Extension Point org.eclipse.jdt.junit.testRunListeners

[Tim Felgentreff]

Eclipse (and various online sources) tell me the extension point
org.eclipse.jdt.junit.testRunListeners is deprecated.
After some hours of research I still haven't found a suitable
alternative.
I need an additional view on the results of JUnit runs that offers
some actions depending on the test results. How would I go about
doing that with current JUnit4?
The @RunWith annotation is unsuitable for my situation, as I need
to run unit tests not written by myself on different systems with
different plug-ins.

Tim,

It is not necessary to implement the extension point.  Instead, you can
add listeners directly to JUnitCore in your Plugin's start method:

public class YourPlugin extends Plugin {
     ...
     public void start(BundleContext context) throws Exception {
         ...
         JUnitCore.addTestRunListener(new YourListener());
     }
     ...
}

public class YourListener extends TestRunListener {
     ...
}

You are now supposed to add test run listeners dynamically. Call
org.eclipse.jdt.junit.JUnitCore.addTestRunListener().
