Maybe it should, but it doesn't. The value of test is always blank, and a println I put in the getter does not show up in the log. I don't thing the action is being instantiated until after the form is submitted.

In general, there is no equivalent of the Struts1 form bean reset() method in Struts2, since there's no need: the action and the form bean are the same thing, and get instantiated once per request.
