In my experience, it's not that the bean config is cached, it's that the form itself is cached. If your bean is not in request scope, it gets reused. Tomcat can keep a session alive between application and server restarts and so your form can survive those. What I've done when I modify my dyna forms is to invalidate any existing sessions I have before proceeding with my testing.
