Hi, >>>Thanks Bernhard, setting fork="yes" in build.xml was the trick. >>>The test cases now run for me. >>> I update the build.xml having set fork="yes for the test target.

But in the test-case there is no parser reading the resolved entitiy. The testcase asks ResolverImpl directly to resolve the entity "ISOnum.pen". Hence the testcase has to close the streams of the InputSource. >>I hope you enjoyed running the test, I "dream" adding more testcases.

Sending the log of a test case, will help to understand problems better, and understanding the technical reason of the problem. (This way the problem of fork="yes" was resolved.) 2) Testcases should help to assert that Cocoon develops further in a stable way. 3) As a pre-deployment task, before a Cocoon version is deployed into its environment (Servlet, Commandline) you can check, if this version is okay. 4) A limitation is perhaps that it should/may not require a certain environment. Thus running for example JSPGenerator test cases might be not possible without a servlet-environment. But perhaps anteater might help in that respect. 5) Adding a <junitreport> in the build.xml will even allow to see html-format test-results. 6) Currently I'm not 100% satisified that all the log information is displayed on System.out, this requires changing the ExcaliburTestCase (i think). The only "trouble" is writing, and maintaining the testcases takes a bit time... bye bernhard --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
