Stephane, Sure, I didn't consider antidote as I don't use the GUI, at least not yet. Not that keen on tying the GUI or JUnit to a particular XML parser either.

The intent is to be somewhat a quick fix to aggregate all test results into a single document while I'm thinking about an enhanced design of the JUnit task. -- Stéphane Bailliez Software Engineer, Paris - France iMediation - http://www.imediation.com Disclaimer: All the opinions expressed above are mine and not those from my company. > -----Original Message----- > From: Conor MacNeill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, January 02, 2001 12:57 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: License problem > > > Guillaume, > > I think you have two choices. > > 1.
