Depending on which testing engine, yes.

There is no platform specific Java code, just the JacobieX.jar requires,
jacob.dll.   Since Jacobie is a wrapper to the IE Com Object, it requires
Windows as a the platform.

1) httpunit testing engine (cross - platform)
2) Jacobie testing engine (windows only)  See below for my idea to
workaround the windows limitation.

Another one of my goals, is to outfit the "Jacob" core code to use JNDI /
JNI / RMI (whichever one it is) to remotely connect to a windows machine
from a unix / linux server.

Ie: Here is my goal since I'm a big linux fan.

1) Execute my jwebunit test cases (running the jacobie testing engine) from
my SUSE linux laptop via Eclipse.
2) Run the "actual" launching of I.E. to my VM Ware Windows XP Pro session
(also on my laptop).
3) Return the same errors via Eclipse from the JUnit plugin.

The above requires me doing "more" work on another sf project.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/jacob-project/  to outfit it with calling
remotely to another machine.  I think.   I haven't went that far so I don't
know what the implementation would be.


BTW - What is the other sf project you are on.  The viewing layer framework.
Does it use JSP's.  I'm more of an all object based view layer guy.  I
didn't care for, at all, for JSP's / taglibs.  I have another personl
project for my business that I want to start on.

See Ya,

Nick Neuberger
