I'm not considering it, I'm going to do it - once I am no longer doing overtime for my day job. >My preference is for mock over the container testing since its much >simpler. The cactus tests I saw (in MyFaces) were for HtmlSelectOneMenu . I recall the rendered output was being tested. I thought it was pretty cool, but you can do this outside of container. These links will wrap, but here is a test for HtmlSelectOneMenu using shale mocks. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/jsf-comp/test/src/java/org/apache/myfaces/test/AbstractUIComponentTestCase.java?rev=1.2&view=auto http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/jsf-comp/test/src/java/org/apache/myfaces/component/html/ext/AbstractHtmlSelectOneMenuTestCase.java?rev=1.2&view=auto You can just run it in JUnit, and get a String w/ the HTML. However if we have someone willing to get the Cactus tests up in Continuum, I'm sure we don't have to treat this as "Cactus or No-Cactus" . Dennis Byrne
