[java] How to pass the -D System properties while testing on Eclipse?

I am developing on Eclipse on Windows and Code gets deployed on Unix. I am fetching the system property values using System.getProperty("key") ... How do I pass this in Eclipse so that I do not have to modify the code and it works on Eclipse for debugging?

Any suggestions?

Yes this is the way:

Right click on your program, select run -> run configuration then on vm argument

-Denv=EnvironmentName -Dcucumber.options="--tags @ifThereisAnyTag"

Then you can apply and close.

This will work for junit. for TestNG use following command

-ea -Dmykey="value" -Dmykey2="value2"

You can add command line arguments to your run configuration. Just edit the run configuration and add -Dmyprop=value (or whatever) to the VM Arguments Box.

run configuration -> arguments -> vm arguments

(can also be placed in the debug configuration under Debug Configuration->Arguments->VM Arguments)

You can use java System.properties, for using them from eclipse you could:

1. Add -Dlabel="label_value" in the VM arguments of the test Run Configuration like this:

2. Then run the test:

   import org.junit.Test;
   import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
   
   public class Main {
       @Test
       public void test(){
           System.out.println(System.getProperty("label"));
           assertEquals("label_value", System.getProperty("label"));
       }
   }
   

3. Finally it should pass the test and output this in the console:

   label_value
