Jon - this looks great. I'm assuming this works great when calling DAOs or Hibernate persistence classes directly from the web tier. If I have the following layers
web (action classes) service (business logic) persistence (daos) And I'd like to use JUnit/Cactus to test them all. If I use your filter, I'm guessing I'll have to pass the Session object all the way down to the persistence layer? What is the recommended way to do this. Furthermore, if I architect my app in this way, for my test cases, should I obtain a session in the TestCase and then pass that in to my methods? All suggestions/recommendations welcome. You can see my example app (and how I'd doing it now) by downloading my struts-resume application from (http://www.raibledesigns.com/downloads). I'd like to figure out the best way to do this, as this struts-resume app is going to end up in a book, and I'm assuming some folks might use it as an example to architect there apps.
