Nathan Coast and I had a chat about this one night (my time, day yours) on IRC/email for Maven, and we need:
appserver stuff: - start - stop - deploy war, ear, rar etc - undeploy war, ear, rar etc - 'save config' if possible For a bunch of supported appservers: Tomcat, Jetty, JBoss, WebLogic, WebSphere, iPlanet etc.... We are also using cactus for our testing (along with StrutsTestCase), and it'd cool to have all this available for tests :) "James Strachan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote on 31/10/2002 02:33:34 AM: > From: "Vincent Massol" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Cactus can use any JUnit test runner.
