Servlet Redirector = org.apache.commons.cactus.ServletTestRedirector
JSP Redirector = redirector.jsp
Filter Redirector (to come) =
org.apache.commons.cactus.FilterTestRedirector
However I have also made some refactoring changes in CVS for Cactus 1.2 and
there is also now a JspTestRedirector class so that we have a symmetry :)

I don't undestand what you are saying ... :-)
If the servlet under test is modified, it is normal it will be reloaded when
accessed, right ?
Yes, the ServletRedirector call the TestCase.testXXX directly but testXXX
calls the servlet under test.
