It is not that failing tests are an acceptable part of the suite, but we do recognize that sometimes, some tests fail in a constantly changing web-app. Our continuous integration build is run every night and a dbUnit task causing the entire ant build to fail causes a lot more havoc then 1 failed webtest inside a suite of hundreds.
The only way I have so far implemented dbUnit is by adding the jars to the /lib folder and adding the taskdef in the webtest runner files. If there is another, easier (or better integrated) way to use dbUnit I'm all ears but so far I can't seem to get around this method and hence posed the question of integrating dbUnit into a webtest step or, how I could cause the build not to fail and stop entirely on a dbUnit task. Hope that explains everything and that maybe somebody has an idea or the list can brainstorm one out.

[...] The question for me is: how do you integrate dbunit into your webtests? Recently we did a little - first step - integration of dbunit but outsite the webtest-task. btw. why is your dbunit-task failing, sometimes? What do you want to achieve with this db-unit-task if failing is acceptable? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Michael Habbert _______________________________________________ WebTest mailing list [email protected] http://lists.canoo.com/mailman/listinfo/webtest The information contained in this email and document(s) attached are for the exclusive use of the addressee and may contain confidential information.
