Hello,

I am trying to work with Webtest from Canoo, specifically I am trying to figure 
out the best way to organize and run tests AND get the reporting to match. (I 
am trying to figure out the best way to organize thing, and I hope the 
following isn't confusing. 

Basically I would like to know, should all reports go to one directory outside 
of the project (sub projects seem to get lost) or should the result be in each 
subproject and be copied or organized in some way after the  test complete.  

(I am fairly light user of ANT and am still learning things about it. Setting 
up directory and filesets seems to be my biggest stumbling block...
) 

It seems like the best way to do this is to divide the project up into 
subproject so that the directories look like the project

for example
-project
    -users
    -products
    -orders

Would have test code set up like
-projectTest
   -users
       -sub - build.xml
   -products  
       -sub - build.xml
  -orders 
      -sub - build.xml
  build.xml (project level file

with build.xml set up in each subproject.

I have the master build.xml file calling clean and test tasks in each 
subproject and was wondering about the reporting ...
A hardcoded entry such as :
c:\reports\project\report.xml seems to dump everything into the directory, 

it does seem to have a lengthy result.xml and lots of html files but the 
directory structure is not preserved ...

I suppose the copy tasks could be used ....

I wonder if leaving the results in each directory is better?

( I am not a big user of ant but I love Canoo's reports, I guess I am curious 
how best to set up the structures.)

PS I noticed several years ago performance and maintenance seem easier when 
things are broken up and there is more than one big test script ...)
