- you create a 'cactified' ear or war on the client machine - deploy that to the server (j2ee or servlet container). The server will now deploy the .war (inside the .ear or separate) and make it available via HTTP (http://servername:port/webapp-context/). It contains a jsp or servlet provided by cactus that can run tests in the server. - locally run the cactus ant task. It connects to the remote machine using HTTP, sends some commands to the special servlet/jsp, and parses the results that servlet/jsp produces. I think this is on the site, btw. -- Kenney > What we did was place an Ant script on the remote machine that runs the > Cactus tests.
