I would highly recommend you encapsulate your little tool in a POJO and
use the POJO from Jelly. So in Jelly you would end up with something
like:

<toolbox:fileChanger
  directory="/my/dir"
  filepattern="**/*.txt"
  find="^monkey"
  replace="donkey"/>

Then you can easily unit test it. Leverage your knowledge of Java, you
don't have to program in Jelly and I highly recommend you don't. Jelly
is an awesome integrator though and that's how you should use it. It's
dead simple to use a POJO from Jelly.
