Howard M. Lewis Ship commented on TAP5-1354:
--------------------------------------------

Thanks for the input; we'll be address most or all of these.  We have a backlog 
of fixups from the move from Maven doc format to Confluence which left a lot of 
things in odd shape.

> Hello,
> first congratulations on a new site!
> Today I needed some information about how to test my services, so I visited 
> the new site and started browsing. Couldn't find the answer. Can someone give 
> me some pointers here?
> First I looked in the FAQ and searched for "test" within the page with my 
> browser. Found 2 irrelevant hits, so I went on to the User guide. There is a 
> section Test, but covers only testing of pages.
> Inspecting further to Tapestry IOC and eye-balling for something useful I 
> discovered a link to registry startup, which briefly mentions what would one 
> want to use it:
> "However, you may want to do some integration testing using the Registry from 
> within a test case,"
> I know there are projects out there, so you can inspect the source code to 
> get an example of how to test the services, but I feel it should be better 
> explained right on the offical page - at least in the FAQ section. It is very 
> hard to embrace testing to start with, so some guidance is much appreciated.
> And the red background links must go away.
> The download section should include maven instruction, at least the 
> dependency section of the pom should be listed.
> There should be more room at the bottom between the last paragraph and the 
> footer. The header on most pages is very "white", the bottom has no space at 
> all. Give it some air.
> Why is there a Book section in the Documentation with only one link to more 
> books? It look like an error. At least last two books (their images and 
> caption) should be there.
> I like the ComponentCheetSheet! A sentance or two more on each annotation 
> would be great.
> The tutorial Setting up your environment should be improved. Alternatives 
> should be described on how to run T5 apps in the Eclipse or other IDEs, but 
> not in the text as that would make it too long. I think there should be links 
> for alternative setups - like how to run the T5 app from a main class and 
> even start VisualVM for early debugging and optimizing (each alternative has 
> pros and cons). There is no mention of m2eclipse plugin. Of course one can 
> use JDK 6 also - only 1.5 is there. There is a sentence: "You should not have 
> to download this directly". Why are then download links on the download page 
> and no mention of maven at the same time. It is confusing for newbs.
> The should also be a more visible link to T5 wiki somewhere.
> I hope I wasn't too harsh, just wanna put my perspective.
> -Borut
