new T5 project - can't find TML file

2012-06-05 Thread Markus Johnston
I'm starting a new T5 project, and am having some difficulty.  For example,
if I put my tml files alongside my java classes
(com.mycompany.myproj.pages), when I startup my app, and navigate to a
page, tapestry tells me that it cannot find the template file.  If I then
move the template file into my web dir, it can find it and everything seems
to work.  I don't want to put my template files in my web dir.  Why is this
not working for me?


testing Tapestry applications (in general)

2011-11-04 Thread Markus Johnston
We have been struggling (in my opinion) with a strategy to properly and
completely test our web application (developed using Tapestry).  We have
some unit tests, but they are all centered on the code closer to the model.
 We have very few, if any, view and controller tests.  We made some
attempts in the past to write selenium tests, but for whatever reason, that
did not catch on.  We have also attempted to use WebDriver along with Geb,
but continued to run into reliability issues with WebDriver and were
frustrated with the inability of the WebDriver developers to settle on an
API.  Geb has some nice features to it, though.

We very much would like to start writing view and controller tests.  I was
wondering what other Tapestry users are doing, as far as testing is
concerned.  What problems have you run into?  What tools or approaches have
you found that work especially well?

I've found HTMLUnit, in the past to be utterly awful.  At least with our
web app (lots of ajax) HTMLUnit struggled and I ran into a lot of bugs.

 For service level tests, I tend to use Mockito a lot.

Thanks for the info.  I'll probably check out newer versions of HTMLUnit
then, to see if it is an option for us.

 Yeah, I've heard that a few times and my own experience in the past
 was also that HTMLUnit couldn't cope with the bigger Javascript
 stacks, however the newer versions (2.8, 2.9) manage to run current
 versions of Prototype, jQuery in my apps just fine.
