Default argument names of parametrized tests

[pandoras-toolbox]

It seems that the arguments of parametrized tests (with JUnit 5) do not have the actual names of the method parameters but instead are named with arg0, arg1, arg2 and so on in the Allure report.

You can use something like @Param("foobar") for a method parameter of a parametrized test so that in the Allure report that name is used instead of arg0, arg1 etc.

Wouldn't it be be nice if the name of the parameter would automatically be used as a name in the Allure report (if not overriden with @Param(name = "xyz")?

The issue can be solved by adding -parameters compiler option:

To store formal parameter names in a particular .class file, and thus enable the Reflection API to retrieve formal parameter names, compile the source file with the -parameters option to the javac compiler.

We will try that, thank you!
