Run JUnit Test suite from command line

Question

How do I run a Junit 4.8.1 Test suite from command line ? Also I want to use the categories introduces with JUnit 4.8 , is there a way where I can specify from command line

Answer 1

Using java run JUnitCore class (also see here).

Categories are supposed to be used with test suites with @RunWith(Categories.class) , @IncludeCategory and @ExcludeCategory. I am not aware of any dynamic way to use categories to run tests but I'd like to know of such it it exists. You can have pre-defined test suites for certain categories to run them.
