Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-6783:
----------------------------------------
oh oh oh I think I know what you mean now. You are not inquiring about
validation, but you just don't know what is the purpose of the generated text
file.
Ok, so the test list container generates either an ant file or a raw text file
of all the tests as I documented. Why is a question left for another time, as
nothing in build.xml is calling --testlist with mode=text. This is old history
so it must've been used in the past or something.
We can clean it up later, because it would be too much work now and this patch
will be delayed if we start to delete this stuff.

> Looking at the main method and design of Start.java and the start component
> overall looks ugly. The things I would like to fix so far are:
> - the files are too long
> - some variables are not even needed (loaderArgs?)
> - the level of abstraction is wrong
> - main throws an exception!
> - the arguments processing logic is terrible, need to move it to commons-cli
> It's just so messy and ugly to look at. So for me refactoring starts at
> Start! Given that this is an important component, I will provide a patch to
> be reviewed by the community before committing just to be on the safe side.
