hi jakob, additions: #1: yesterday (in our discussion about it) we also talked about a replacement for shale-test (e.g. based on easymock or mockito or ...). #2: since we also need it for sub-projects like extval, codi,... we should create e.g. a new extensions- or myfaces-commons-module for it.

Isn't the Myfaces test (svn.apache.org/repos/asf/myfaces/test) not the successor of shale test ? Automated test are indeed very useful, an alternative (easier to set up maybe) of JSFUnit would be great. Regards, Rudy. On 26 March 2010 12:38, Gerhard Petracek gerhard.petra...@gmail.com wrote: hi

yes - it's an improved version of shale test. however, it would be nice to have a more modern solution e.g. with a fluent api, better reporting, ... so we could compare it with the existing solution. regards, gerhard http://www.irian.at Your JSF powerhouse - JSF Consulting, Development and

Frankly, I like MyFaces test. It just has to be improved, but we can totally use it (actually that's what we're doing right now). The only thing we can't use MyFaces test is for a real webapp-test, and that is were the GSoC project comes up! Furthermore I don't think we need a subproject for

Selenium is actually quite nice. I used it on a previous project. It is really easy to record scripts, but also integrates very well with a Maven build, for example using Selenium RC. But it's 100% client side, so you don't have the deep JSF insight as with JSFUnit. My only JSFUnit usage was the

i just mention the most important issue (to keep it short): imo the current module is ~ok for basic myfaces-core tests. however, it doesn't fit e.g. for testing extensions. (the module uses too much mock implementations.) you won't see some important issues. so some tests aren't really reliable as

Hi, As we currently only have normal JUnit tests for automated testing in MyFaces Core, it would be really great to have a way to test MyFaces Core automatically in a real webapp at build time with maven. Of course, we currently have the test-webapp, but we still have to check each page manually
