I've been using the following BasePageTestCase with JSF 1.1 (MyFaces) for the past couple of years.
http://tinyurl.com/yv68y7 An example test can be seen at http://tinyurl.com/yrajef - the most important part being getManagedBean() in setUp(). After trying to migrate to MyFaces 1.2.0, I'm getting the following error: ERROR - DefaultFacesInitializer.initFaces(126) | Error initializing MyFaces: null java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.myfaces.webapp.DefaultFacesInitializer.initFaces(DefaultFacesInitializer.java:102) at org.apache.myfaces.webapp.StartupServletContextListener.contextInitialized(StartupServletContextListener.java:57) at org.appfuse.web.BasePageTestCase.performFacesContextConfig(BasePageTestCase.java:57) at org.appfuse.web.BasePageTestCase.<clinit>(BasePageTestCase.java:49) This seems to be partially caused by MyFaces 1.2.0 requiring JSP 2.1 (http://tinyurl.com/yvh63s). It seems that I may be fighting a losing battle and it may be better to develop some sort of implementation agnostic BasePageTestCase. Is this what shale-test provides? Does it offer a similar mechanism to get a managed-bean with its Spring dependencies wired, or will it allow me to instantiate a managed bean in some way? Or is it better to just mock test managed beans?
