Dear Kevin,
 
I see where you come from.
 
The last time I tested GWT server-side logic (one year ago), I remember 
directly testing the java methods instead of calling it from the client-side 
generated JS (that's what RPC is for), and it was fairly the same.
 
>>Rhino/HTMLUnit still need some improvements
 
Very true, currently HtmlUnit misses one issue and it should support GWT 1.5 
(but not EXT) :(
 
Anyway, best of luck in your tests, whichever way you go.
 
Yours,
Ahmed

Subject: Re: The Basics

Hi Ahmed:

The reason I am trying to execute the RPC calls is so that in the
event of radical UI changes (EXT is an example) my team will still be
able to test the basic business logic.  I need a way to make calls to
GWT RemoteServiceServlets over http and so far the only way to do that
seems to be through the javascript compiled by GWT itself.  GWT's rpc
protocol is very opaque, making it very difficult to performance test.

So I was hoping to piggyback onto Rhino and use it as a tool through
which to make the RPC calls.  Rhino/HTMLUnit still need some
improvements in order to automate interaction with the UI's provided
by frameworks like EXT.
