sbt-assembly : including test classes

Question

As part of sbt-assembly I want to include both src and test class files in jar. Sbt-assembly includes only src files with dependencies. Is there any way through which I can include test classes also in same jar?

Answer 1

I wrote sbt-assembly so that the settings can be loaded into other configurations than the default Runtime. Put the following in assembly.sbt and it should add test:assembly task:

import AssemblyKeys._

Project.inConfig(Test)(baseAssemblySettings)

jarName in (Test, assembly) := s"${name.value}-test-${version.value}.jar"

Like the way jarName setting is scoped, substitute xxx in assembly in README with xxx in (Test, assembly) to customize the setting.
