If you are doing tests that require lots of that type of logic, have you looked at WebTest? (webtest.canoo.com). While not a direct "Unit" test per se, you can set up unit style tests, and it makes web testing very easy...
Eric -----Original Message----- From: Charlene Mitchell [mailto:charlene_ml@;yahoo.co.uk] Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2002 8:10 AM To: Cactus Users List Subject: RE: followRedirects is false Thanks (yet again) for the reply. What I am trying to achieve is actually very simple (at the moment). For example, I have a method 'getData()' in an EJB, I simply want to call this method using Cactus and assert whether I get a) data (ok) b) null (fail) c) exception (fail) (the Cactus code is written, and looks/compiles fine - so no problems there). I don't want to test http codes, I don't want to test authentication, I just want to test a method. Since the normal EJB 'getData()' method cannot be invoked unless a valid user is logged in to the application (due to standard method-level J2EE security constraints within ejb-jar.xml), this means that the Cactus test also needs a valid user logged in (else I will get an authentication exception). So, for me, typing the uid/pwd in a login web-page is enough, I do not need FormAuthentication class (though at the same time I have downloaded the nightly build jakarta-cactus-13-20021022.zip and am also trying from Ant, but that's another story.) So, what happens at the moment is that I type the URL of the TestCase in my browser, the Web/AppServer decides that I am trying to access a protected resource and redirects me to a logon page, I then type in my uid/pwd, and then instead of being redirected back to the TestCase (now that I am allowed to execute it), I see the 302 errors.
