No it's not. I remember John and another person a long time before were
interested in that topic but I don't believe there has been progress (I
haven't seen it as least).

Sorry but I don't know anything about Portlets :-) That said if the URL is
something that is container-specific it shouldn't be an issue. We could make
it a Cactus property in the Cactus framework and the URL would be set
automatically in the Ant and Mavne integrations for example.

Thanks

Vincent,

The most difficult part of portlet cactus testing is the portlet 
application URL, that is
changing from deployment to deployment.
So, the question was more about automating the task of identifying the 
correct URL
for the tested portlet app, not implementation of the test.
We work with WebSphere, probably it's not a general portlet issue, but 
just IBM
portal implementation that makes our life so hard. I'm not sure about 
that, would be
glad to have any info on that.

Thanks!

Hi Oleg,
 
(cc-ing the Cactus user list so that everyone interested can participate)
 
I?d say it?s not possible as is simple because a Portlet is NOT a Servlet. 
It has a different specification and a different lifecycle. That said, it 
would be relatively easy to build a PortletTestCase and associated 
objects.
 
For now your best solution is to use mock objects and functional testing.
 
Thanks

Hi Vincent! 

Looked through the Cactus site, and noticed your 1 year old discussion 
concerning integration 
of Cactus and Portlets. 
It didn't answer the question how to do the actual integration, and 
whether it is possible now. 
Right now we are looking for some tool to test Portlet applications, do 
you know if Cactus 
is capable of that? 
Thanks in advance!
