Yes probably but I don't know what a MasterProject is ! :-)
Is it a java class file, is it a WAR, is it a project in the IDE sense ?
If so, are you test class files in that project (they must be) ?
You need to have the test classes deployed in tomcat. Are you familiar
with the concept of Cactus client side and Cactus Server side ? If not,
I would suggest you read the "how it works" guide.

Again is that a class file, another WAR or an IDE project ? Your test
classes must be located in 2 places : in your running container and on
the TestRunner side.

Maybe not. I still fail to understand what is your problem. What error
are you getting ?
Thanks
