Hello, I don't have that much time to spend these days on Cocoon but I would really like to see true Object Oriented approach implemented in upcoming[1] release of cocoon-servlet-service. The main task is tracked by COCOON-2038[2] where Rice Yeh has uploaded his patch implementing true OO behaviour in servlet-service-fw. According to Rice, this patch contains a bug-fix as well (details in the comments).
After reviewing Rice's patch I decided that we really need test coverage for this quite complicated functionality for both ServletServiceContext class usage clarity and casual hunting for bugs. Daniel pointed me to another bug report (COCOON-1939[3]) that involves OO aspects of servlet-service-fw. That makes point about test coverage even more strong. What I would like to ask you for in this e-mail is to add additional tests to ServletServiceContextTestCase class that exhibit problems mentioned in both issues. As soon as I have working test cases I guess that fixing problems would be quite easy. Since it was you who discovered problems it should be quite easy to write tests for them, too. Alexander and Rice, can I count on your help with this before next release in late September is cut?
