vscode-java-test Live Share Support

I noticed that your VS Code extension does not support Live Share, so basically the guest cannot see host's tests in the test explorer window.

When using Live Share with your test explorer, this is how the host's test explorer window looks like: image_2019-08-17_21-01-55

And this is how the guest's window looks like: image_2019-08-17_20-04-23

Please let me know if you are interested in having such functionality in the extension, because me and @Temurson would be glad to have it and would be excited to work on it.

Hi @iskandarumidov,

Thank you for reporting the issue. Let me do some investigation to figure out what's missing to enable the Live Share.

If you find anything, please also feel free to let us know.

Thanks.

Hello @jdneo, As far as I understand from the source code, the extension does not use VSLS (Visual Studio Live Share) at all at this point. I'm guessing you'd have to get your extension on the allow list first (see https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/live-share/issues/736#issuecomment-509501912)

And then you'd have to add functionality to your code to send over the results of the test runs over the network to the other participants of the session

Thank you.

Thank you @iskandarumidov for the information.

Live Share is an interesting area that we are looking at. I suggest that we can wait for a while to see if there are more users echo for this request, then we can put this fancy story into our plan.

I would also like Live Share support.
