[Jwebunit-development] Future jWebUnit project directory layout

[Martijn Dashorst]

Hi, Since the inception of jWebUnit, the project has grown and many directories have evolved under the jWebUnit CVS module. I think it is now time to make a clean cut for the project in order to keep it organized and maintainable. For people reading this message without HTML support, I apologize, but I couldn't find a better way to use the tables for the directory layout. If there are no objections, I want us to implement this proposal in the next few weeks. I think I'll need some help from Jim for doing this in a wise and consistent manner. Here's what I propose: separate jwebunit - fit plug in from the jwebunit core into a project/CVS module of its own make maven the main build tool for jwebunit. Ant script will be provided/maintained for people to create their own build. adhere to the maven proposed/default directory structure described at http://wiki.codehaus.org/maven/DirectoryLayout use solely XDOC type documentation to maintain the documentation of the project and generate the website from the XDOCs and maven plug ins This will result in the following CVS tree: Module Description /CVSROOT CVS admin directory /jWebUnit Jwebunit main project /jwebunit-fit Fit-project /site deprecated, to be removed by sourceforge.net administrators Other projects, for instance the jwebunit-maven plugin, will get their own module in cvs next to the existing modules. jWebUnit directory structure (in the CVS module): Directory/file Description project.xml maven project object model maven.xml maven build file project.properties customizations for maven builds build.xml ant build file for building jwebunit with ant LICENSE.txt the jWebUnit license license-checkstyle.txt checkstyle file for checking the headers of each java file licenses/ licenses for supplied libraries lib/ lib directory for supplied libraries src/ source directory containing all source files src/main source directory containing all jwebunit framework sources src/main/java all java source files for jwebunit src/test source directory containing all jwebunit test source files. src/test/java all java testcases src/test/webapp the webapplication directory for testcases (using jetty) src/test/resources resources for testing purposes (jetty config, etc) xdocs documentation directory
