I think you can nicely end up with a good test-oriented DSL by using
Groovy, which should make tests nice and readable.

Absolutely. This is just for some new tests I'm writing; I'm not
talking about a wholesale change. I'm already pretty pleased with
some of the results.
void execute(root, resolver, closure) {
replay()
closure.call(new PageTemplateLocator(root, resolver))
verify()
}
@Test
void not_a_page_class() {
def model = mockComponentModel()
def root = mockResource()
def resolver = mockComponentClassResolver()
train_getComponentClassName(model, "foo.bar.Baz")
execute (root, resolver) {
assert it.locateTemplate (model, Locale.FRENCH) == null
}
}
Using a method + closure to instantiate the object being tested and
pass it as "it" to the closure works really well (and eliminates
confusion about replay() and verify() ).
I'm sure my Groovy skills will improve and there'll be better ways to
do this, but not having to deal with all the variable types is already
a step in the right direction.

I guess you don't want to force all Tapestry users to switch to
Groovy-based
tests. It should be still possible to write pure java tests after the
upgrade to 5.2. Furthermore existing test should still work.
However, I need a reason to improve my Groovy skills. :) So go ahead.

I'd like to start experimenting with writing some of the Tapestry
tests in Groovy, rather than Java. Any objections?
