Hi, 1. We have not upgraded from version 1.9.3 yet. Still need to research which is the best option.
2. We have made a number of changes to the AppFuse code and vote for having a full source archetype. It is true that upgrading AppFuse code will then be more cumbersome, but I must live with this. If a full source archetype is not included, then I will have to use your development tree to get the source code, move it to our basic/modular archetype, then merge our code into it. Having a full source archetype will therefore save time 3. We do use Canoo WebTests, but find it has it's limitations, takes a long time to tweak the script! Selenium looks very promising. It is good news if it is possible, as you mentioned, to use Selenium IDE to quickly create scripts, and then to use <selenese> Ant task.

As far as archetypes go, are you using basic or modular? 2. If there was a 3rd type of archetype that included the full source (like AppFuse 1.x), would you use it over the existing basic or modular archetypes? If yes, I'm assuming upgrading is not that big of an issue for you? 3. Do you use the Canoo WebTests? If not, how do you do UI testing? If so, would you prefer Selenium? <rambling> On my current project, I integrated Selenium to replace Canoo and got tests working in both IE and Firefox (I even found a bug that only happens in IE). The HTML-based tests are great for running in Selenium IDE and using the <selenese> Ant task, but they don't allow i18n or dynamic values AFAICT. I've gotten the Java-based tests working as well. I think it's good to support both, but it probably makes sense to use the Java-based tests in AppFuse core if we're going to replicate the current functionality where we can test all locales. Of course, we could probably parse/replace keys in the HTML files, but that sounds XDoclet-ish where it works from Maven, but not very well from the IDE. </rambling> Thanks, Matt -- http://raibledesigns.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
