I actually did exactly this for a forthcoming article on IBM's developerworks. I used AspectJ (www.aspectj.org) to change the test case's parent class depending on which deployment I was running. Cool stuff. I'll be sure to post a link to the article here as soon as it's published.

OK, Is it possible for cactus tests to be run as standalone plain old junit tests? Here's our situation: 1)We are writting some "Foundation" SessionEJBs 2)We using Sun J2EE Business Delegate pattern to isolate clients from our deployment architecture Therefore, we can run the same logic/code from within a EJB environment or not. 2)we chose to write POJT (plain old junit tests) to test the basic logic AND use cactus to test in-container reaction to our code. Well doing it that way has meant us having to copy n' paste the same test logic into 2 classes: 1)public class XTest extends TestCase 2)public class XCactus extends ServletTestCase We'd like to get rid of the duplication effort, any ideas on how to centralize the test code and have it runnable as ServletTestCase And TestCase? BTW we thought about using composition ie: public class XTestLogic{ //all test code in here } public class XTest extends TestCase { private XTestLogic testlogic = new XTestLogic() } public class XCactus extends ServletTestCase{ private XTestLogic testlogic = new XTestLogic() } but all the assertX() are obviously not available in XTestLogic. any insight would be appreciated, Mike __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
