Yes, you're right. The ATL plug-in will not be needed in production.
So, all we need is a configurable test case to run multiple
transformation configurations.
By the way: These test cases will need to find the UML metamodel. I'd
like to load it from our uml14-di.jar, not from an XMI file. Is that
possible with ATL?
Sure...should be easy enough, just find the metamodel XMI as a resource
(i.e. ATLTransformerTest.class.getResource("/metamodel.xmi")) and pass
that in (you'll see in the ATLTransformerTest, I'm doing that with
resources on the classpath).
The second problem is that the test model references our
andromda-profile.xml.zip file - a fact that will disturb ATL when it
tries to load the model to be transformed.

Very good. Thanks.
