Save your time from building scaffolding for each leetcode problem.
Only Focus on Solutions!
leetcode-helper is a single-jar library that liberate you from setting up solution-test scaffold for each problem. Generate solution/test skeletons, compile, test by commands on one line. Junit 4, log4j, slf4j are integrated. com.ciaoshen.leetcode.util package provide simplest implementations for 7 commonly used data structures such as TreeNode, ListNode, etc.
Configure a problem

Command on one line to generate Solution/Test skeleton

The generated skeletons:

Commend on one line to compile and run JUnit tests

Commend on one line to remove sources

The newest version is v0.60
Updates
- add shell script to generate, compile, test leetcode solution just as what ant does.
- some other finishing touch.
- leetcode-helper project completed.
Installation
Unarchieve the .taror .tar.gz or .zip file. Copy everything in leetcode-helper-vX.X folder to your work directory. If your work directory was clean, it will look like,
root
├── README.md
├── build.xml
├── demo/
│ └── two_sum/
│ └── ...
├── lib/
│ └── leetcode-helper.jar
└── problem.properties
Need Ant
Make sure you have installed Ant. Use -version option to check,
ant -version
If not, get the last version here --> 【Installing Apache Ant】
Usage
Windows User please use PowerShell to launch the script
Do NOT use cmd.exe. It doesn't work with the paths using forward-slash("/").
Configure problem information
To solve for example the problem "two sum", open problem.properties file, configure the "problem.name" field as below,
problem.name = two_sum
Give your solutions a parent package name,
package.name = com.leetcode
You can also assign a method prototype to problem.members argument (optional). If you are lazy, just keep this field blank.
problem.members = private int add(int a, int b) {}
Generate solution skeleton
After typing command line in console,
ant
or,
ant generate
you'll get 5 skeletons, 3 under ./src/main/java directory, 2 in ./src/test/java folder.

Solution.java is an interface, while Solution1.java and Solution2.java are two implementations. Tester.java class works oriented to Solution interface, thus you can easily add Solution3.java or Solution4.java. Make sure that they implement Solution interface.
Tester.java and TesterRunner.java are JUnit module. Add your unit test in Tester.java and launch TesterRunner to execute JUnit test (you can launch TesterRunner in one line command).
Tester tests Solution1 as default. To test Solution2, just assign an instance of Solution2 to the solution field in Tester class (do it in the Constructor of Tester class) as follow,
@BeforeClass
public static void setUpBeforeClass() throws Exception {
/* uncomment to switch solutions */
// solution = new Solution1();
solution = new Solution2();
}
Compile & Test solutions
To compile all above sources by one command line,
ant compile
and launch TesterRunner with another command,
ant test
or, you can do both the same time,
ant compile test
The compiled .class files will locate in ./bin directory as usual,

Clean a specific problem
The following command can delete all source files, as well as .class byte code for a specific problem,
ant clean
Make sure that you really want to do so before using this command.
Use -D option to pass argument
If you don't want to edit the problem.proberties for every problems, you can edit the package.name field at the first time, and pass the problem.name argument from the command line,
ant generate -Dproblem.name three_sum
ant compile -Dproblem.name three_sum
ant test -Dproblem.name three_sum
ant clean -Dproblem.name three_sum
