Hi,

You might have noticed, by skimming the sent protocol, that we had a workshop 
on about how to write better tests. Now that the topic is risen I think it 
makes sense to do the next step and decide for a framework to 'standardize' our 
tests by following BDD patters. I think JDave or JBehave could be a nice match. 
They are both plain Java frameworks.

After a first glance:

JDave
- plain Java, no text files needed
- close to what we do today just more structured
--> http://jdave.org/documentation.html

JBehave
- easy to read, more to write
- we could potentially use our property style to define content structures
--> http://jbehave.org/reference/latest/

EasyB
An other alternative would be to use EasyB (groovy based) but I am not sure if 
this makes things much easier. In any case I have to admit that this tests are 
very readable
--> http://www.easyb.org

I don't plan to make a big evaluation. We are simply going to vote for one. 
Once we have written the next set of tests we would evaluate the choice. Any 
comments suggestions are welcome.
