Re: [wtp-dev] Looking for committer with an interest in server-side unit

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dan, I confess my ignorance (too) and
ask ... what's the benefit to WTP? 
From the Apache Cactus website, "Cactus
is a simple test framework for unit testing server-side java code (Servlets,
EJBs, Tag Libs, Filters, ...). ".

While this is a great thing, WTP isn't
providing "server side java code" per se, are we? 
So ... just wondering ... (I suspect
you've explained this before/else where and I've lost track). 
Thanks. (And, please, interpret the
questions as interest, not resistance :)

Hi Dan, 

I'm the most likely candidate to adopt this code, and was going to respond
back to your earlier note. I think the code looks good and ready to go,
I just have a couple minor concerns that hopefully will be easy to resolve.
The first is that I have a passing familiarity with Cactus, but I'm definitely
not an expert. I was hoping the community would chime in with feedback
or even a "hey, that'd be great!". I'd like to get at least one
other person who is familiar with Cactus to give this a try and give a
thumbs-up. If nobody else offers, maybe one of the other guys at BEA?

Second, I don't have the resource to do anything more than review &
commit code, answer questions, etc. I doubt this is an issue, but I just
need to be clear that I'm expecting you to maintain the code with cleanup,
general release polishing, and fixing bugs. 

We can take the rest of this offline and hopefully get the code in soon!

Thanks,

Hi everyone, 
I am still in the market for a committer to adopt the cactus code. I would
love to see it get into 1.0. It is functional and has a very nice README
if you would like to try it out. I do need to take a few minutes to move
it into internal packages but I am holding off until I know where this
is going to be packaged and whether it is going to be in its own plug-in
or part of another. 
So be kind. Support server-side testing and adopt this poor lonely plug-in
that needs a home. 
Thanks, 
Dan
