As jon pointed out... this is cool :).  We need to implement this under
our test framework so that we can build tests that verify Jetspeed
content output. :)

BTW.  I am going to investigate what we should do with out current
framework in CVS.  I might propose it as a part of Ant or as its own
subproject. There are a lot of issues here: 

- JUnit isn't desirable for a number of reasons
- There is moo.. which doesn't look to be supported anymore
- There is an avalon framework for testing.
- There is the IBM/Tomcat test suite.

etc.etc.. The point is that the test suite that is in CVS is beyond the
scope of what Jetspeed is trying to do.  I just wanted to get it in
somewhere.

BTW.  I am starting to grow tired of Castor.  I hate its object
generation (not flexible and puts all the XML marshaling code into the
generated objects).  I wrote XJay (http://xjay.sourceforge.net) to solve
some of these problems for us.  *VERY* simple/clean/modular/  XSLT->Java
:).  I might propose that Castor use it to map XML->Java but if they
don't I will just build reflection support into XJay... probably based
on something like ANT does for TASK attribute setting.
