> Hi,
>
> I would like to do it exactly like we did it in MyFaces-Test, however
> not exactly like you're proposing. As you said, MyFaces-Test keeps the
> most code in the 1.2 module and the 2.0 module just takes what it
> needs. But what you're proposing is to move all integration-tests to
> 2.1 and also run it with 2.0 in some kind of way..
>
> I would like to have the 2.0 integration-tests really in the 2.0
> branch. If some of them (or as you pointed out: most of them) also
> apply to the 2.1 branch, the 2.1 branch should re-use them dynamically
> and not the other way round.
>
> Thus it would be like this: 2.0 branch provides all 2.0 applicable
> tests, 2.1 branch re-uses the tests which also apply for 2.1 and adds
> some 2.1 specific ones.

> > In few words, put this on trunk does not mean it will not run against
> > 2.0 !!!!. A "light" way to deal with this kind of problem is take a
> > look at myfaces tests project. It has two modules: 1.2 and 2.0, and
> > 2.0 just "take what it needs" from 1.2 module and that's it. This
