Comparison with JUnit 5.7 JFR Support
Built in JFR support in JUnit 5.7 is much easier to use as it requires only adding the org.junit.platform:junit-platform-jfr
and no additional annotations. However the built in JFR support in JUnit does not generate events for @BeforeAll
, @BeforeEach
, @AfterEach
and @AfterAll
methods.
