Sean,
That's cool, thanks ! :-)
Yes, please submit it to this list. However, can you submit it :
- either in XML format as attached (all our docs are generated from XML
to which we apply a stylesheet),
- or in plain text (no formatting) as I will then take you doc and
transform it to XML.
Thanks
-Vincent

<body>
<s1 title="Forewords and Requirements">
<p>
First of all, JUnit and Cactus jar files are needed for this tutorial, please
download them :
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<link href="downloads.html">cactus</link>
</li>
<li>
<link href="http://www.junit.org/";>junit</link>
</li>
</ul>
</s1>
<s1 title="Step 1 : Create junit and cactus libraries">
<p>
Let's assume the following conventions :
<strong><code>{Cactus dir}</code></strong> is the directory where you
have unzipped the Cactus distribution or sources.
Let's also assume <strong><code>{Tomcat dir}</code></strong> to be the Tomcat directory.
</p>
<figure src="images/jb_libraries.gif" alt="jbuilder libraries" />
<s2 title="Create the junit library">
<p>
Create a new library named <code>junit</code>.
Add the junit.jar file to this library in the class tab.
</p>
</s2>
<s2 title="Create the cactus library">
<p>
Create a library named <code>cactus</code>.
Add <code>cactus.jar</code> and optionnaly
<code>log4j-core.jar</code>. Note that
<code>log4j-core.jar</code> is useful only if you wish to get
some Cactus runtime logs.
</p>
<note>
You can also add the source file directories in the source tab :
<code>{Cactus dir}/src/framework/servlet22</code> and
<code>{Cactus dir}/src/framework/share</code>
This way, you will be able to debug inside cactus sources.
</note>
</s2>
<s2 title="Create the tomcat library">
<p>
Create another library named <code>tomcat</code>
and add all the jar files from <code>{Tomcat dir}/lib</code>.
</p>
<note>
If you use JBuilder 4 Enterprise or JBuilder 4 Professionnal, you don't need to create
this library because Tomcat 3.1 is provided with those versions.
</note>
</s2>
</s1>
<s1 title="Step 2 : Set up the cactus.properties file">
<p>
Edit a new file named <code>cactus.properties</code>
(see the <link href="howto_config.html">Configuration Howto</link>
tutorial for more details on <code>cactus.properties</code>).
</p>
<p>
Sample <code>cactus.properties</code> file :
</p>
<source><![CDATA[
cactus.servletRedirectorURL = http://localhost:8080/cactus/ServletRedirector
]]></source>
<p>
Copy your <code>cactus.properties</code> file to a directory present
in your classpath. You can copy it to a directory and add this
directory in the class tab of the cactus library.
</p>
</s1>
<s1 title="Step 3 : Configure Tomcat Environment">
<s2 title="Create a cactus webapp">
<p>
Create and edit the file <code>{Tomcat dir}/webapps/cactus/WEB-INF/web.xml</code> :
</p>
<source><![CDATA[
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd";>
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>ServletRedirector</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.cactus.server.ServletTestRedirector</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ServletRedirector</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/ServletRedirector</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
]]></source>
</s2>
<note>
You can edit <code>{Tomcat dir}/conf/web.xml</code> instead if you prefer. <br />
You can also edit the web.xml file of the webapp where is located the servlet(s) you want to test. <br />
Don't forget to modify <code>cactus.properties</code> file accordingly.
</note>
</s1>
<s1 title="Step 4 : Configure your project">
<ol>
<li>
Put <code>-classic -Dtomcat.home="{Tomcat dir}"</code> as the VM parameters for your project and
<code>org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat</code> as the main class.
</li>
<li>
Add the following libraries in the <code>Required Libraries</code> tab in the
project properties :
<ul>
<li>tomcat</li>
<li>servlet</li>
<li>junit</li>
<li>cactus</li>
</ul>
<figure src="images/jb_paths.gif" alt="jbuilder libraries" />
</li>
</ol>
</s1>
<s1 title="Step 5 : Test and debug your servlet">
<s2 title="Test your servlet">
<ol>
<li>
Start Tomcat using the <code>Run/Run Project</code> menu.
</li>
<li>
Run your unit tests : right Click on the file containing your test case and click on <code>run</code>
</li>
</ol>
</s2>
<s2 title="Debug your servlet and your tests">
<p>
You can easily print the results of the methods on the server-side itself.
</p>
<p>
You can also start Tomcat in debug mode (<code>Run/debug project</code>).
This way, you can stop at breakpoints on methods that are executed on the
server side (<code>void testXXX()</code> for example)
</p>
<p>
If you right click on the file containing your test case and click on <code>debug</code>,
you can stop at breakpoints on methods that are executed on the client side like
<code>void endXXX(WebResponse)</code> or <code>void beginXXX(WebRequest)</code>
</p>
