This is just a note to my self of what Eclipse plugins I’ll use. This list may, however, also be useful to you.

• Subclipse: Subversion support
• MercurialEclipse: Mercurial support
• ExploreFS: This plugin allows you to open a file in Windows Explorer/Finder through the context menu.
• CheckStyle: This plugins allows you define more precise rules for your code style. If a rule is violated, a warning is issued.

• TestNG: Unit testing framework (much like JUnit)

To see what plugins have already been installed, go to Help –> Install new software… and click on What is already installed? at the bottom of the dialog.
