How to use PageTester with web apps using tapestry-spring and Spring 3.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: TAP5-1191
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1191
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: Question
    Affects Versions: 5.2.0
            Reporter: Thomas Wintergerst


We am using Tapestry for a provisioning portal. The web portal is only a part 
of the complete application. The application uses Spring 3.0. As the web portal 
must use some of the core libraries we must use Tapestry v5.2.0-SNAPSHOT 
(hoping for a release soon), as only tapestry-spring-5.2.0-SNAPSHOT is 
compatible with Spring 3.0.

I would like to use the PageTester to perform some tests relating to pages of 
the web portal. But unfortunately it seems not to be possible to instanciate 
pages that require injected Spring beans (in fact all pages in our web portal 
are based on Spring beans).

The PageTester provides the method provideExtraModuleDefs() that perhaps could 
be used in a derived class to add an instance of SpringModuleDef (that is 
flagged "internal", of course). But the SpringModuleDef class requires a 
ServletContext as a constructor parameter. Within the context of the PageTester 
I have no access to such an object.

Also adding SpringModule.class as the 4th parameter of the PageTester 
constructor does not work.

Am I missing some point here? Or is it currently really not possible to use 
PageTester for page classes requiring injected Spring beans?
