They are indeed two separate issues. Eventually, I want to move most of the tests which currently access a service across the net to be local "XML playback" tests, to avoid problems with down servers / remote version skew /etc. However we'll always have a need for interop tests, and so we'll want the offline switch anyway (or perhaps an "online" switch?).
I envision the future Axis user downloading the package and being able to completely build/test it with ant all-tests on a disconnected laptop with no config changes. Running ant interop-tests or somesuch would attempt the online stuff. Hm. Actually, the more I think about this the less I'm convinced we need a switch as much as a set of separate ant targets....? --Glen > -----Original Message----- > From: Steve Loughran [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 10:01 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: adding offline support to axis tests > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Tom Jordahl" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 06:44 > Subject: RE: adding offline support to axis tests > > > > > > Steve, > > > > +1 > > > > Are you investigating the XML reflector server that Glen > has been talking > about to simulate going against other servers (i.e. .NET) instead of > actually trying to talk to them vie the internet? > > nope.
