Re: [wtp-dev] WTP and Server-side testing


Hi Dan,

Welcome on board. Our goal is to automate as much testing as possible using JUnit. Right now, we are running these JUnits through the Eclipse testing framework, which support some level of server-side testing (if by server-side you mean the Eclipse workbench). If by server-side you mean testing J2EE container code such as servlet and EJB, I don't think we have any of these tests yet. Even if we do, the number is very limited.

I'm not very familiar with Cactus myself, but I'm very interested to see it in action. AFAIK, Cactus builds around JUnit, so if the need is there, I can't think of a reason why we don't want to use it. Maybe we can chat offline and discuss the specifics.

Thanks,

[wtp-dev] WTP and Server-side testing





Hi everyone,
Following Konstantin’s lead, I would also like to say a quick hello. I am a co-worker of his at BEA and work on the debugger side of things. I am hoping to be able to contribute in the area of debugging and testing.
 
Speaking of which, I have a question about what, if any plans, there are to support server-side component testing (such as cactus tests)? I have cobbled together a cactus launch short-cut that I would be happy to contribute to WTP. Right now I use a couple of internal packages that I probably shouldn’t, both in junit and wst. I would love to advice for how to clean it up so I am not abusing the API-usage conventions.
 
Is cactus something of interest or is there something else in the works for testing? I would be happy to chat either on the mailing list or off-line if there are other interested parties.
 
Thanks very much and it is nice to meet you all,
Dan
