The idea was more for testing new releases. On my laptop setting
test.threads to 8 completes in about 10 minutes, while the default 1 thread
takes more than 1 hour.
I looked deeper into build.xml and I found some interesting information and
a simple solution for my issue. In build.xml we have the following:
<property file="${user.home}/build.properties"/>
<property file="build.properties"/>
<property file="build.properties.default"/>
So I can place my settings for test.threads in ~/build.properties.
The current order of precedence, however, gives
${user.home}/build.properties a higher priority than the one at
{tomcat}/build.properties.
That is wrong IMHO and should be the other way around, i.e.
{tomcat}/build.properties should override${user.home}/build.properties . I
would like to change that order if everyone agrees.
I added an ant target, echoproperties [1], which outputs the merged
properties so it's easy to see the final values.
Best,
Igal
