Howard M. Lewis Ship updated TAP5-966:
--------------------------------------

    Description: 
Frequently when integration testing an application, it is desirable to 
re-configure some parts of it (i.e., special symbol defaults, new service 
overrides, special service configurations), which currently is ad-hoc or 
otherwise awkward.

How about if there was a special JVM system property: tapestry.execution-mode.  
This would be a comma-seperated list of mode names. For each one, the T5 filter 
would check for a <init-parameter> named "tapestry.foo-modules" (where "foo" is 
a mode name) and add those to the Registry.  The default value for 
execution-mode would be "production" ... thus you could easily have certain 
module classes loaded for normal production and a different set loaded for 
integration testing.

If the T5 filter included an init-param "tapestry.test-modules" as a 
comma-separated list of module classes to load (in addition to the default) 
that would be great.

Possibly this could be generalized to a "run-mode" that could be "test" or 
"integration" (or any arbitrary string) and Tapestry would include 
"tapestry.xyz-modules" if it exists as an init param.  The default would be 
"production" which would allow for some large scale swapping out of production 
modules vs. test modules.

        Summary: TapestryFilter should be able add additional modules to the 
Registry to accomidate different testing (or other) execution configurations  
(was: TapestryFilter should support a test mode (from a JVM system proprerty) 
and an init parameter to specify additional module classes when in test mode)
