Ralf,
If you could post just a quick outline of the guideline mentioned, I would
appreciate it immensely.
Thanks
Nate

Subject: AW: [Selenium-users] Java Driven mode broken in 0.6.0?
Hi all,
the Java driven mode fits in natural for Java based web applications.
That's why I prefer it over adding Java Script code to our pure Java
code base. I have the Java driven mode up and running using the 0.6.0
zip file from the Selenium download site. I didn't try to compile the
source yet.
The lack of documentation gives developers a too long start-up time for
the Java driven mode. I plan to write a guideline for it to fill the
gap.
So, don't ditch the Java driver as it really is a great way to test Java
based web applications simply by adding another JUnit test case to the
project.
Ralf

Betreff: [Selenium-users] Java Driven mode broken in 0.6.0?
(Forgive my cross-posting, but this is both an end-user request and a
volunteer to aid in development.)
Browsing through the lists, it doesn't look like anyone has gotten Java
Driven mode to work in some time. If so, I'd like to help fix it.

I, like others, are getting SeleniumCommandTimedOutExceptions... I
couldn't find an issue in JIRA, so I filed one myself.
http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/SEL-166
It looks like people seem to think that nobody uses Java driven mode:

Poking through the code in Eclipse, it looks to me like it's an issue with
deadlocking around the SingleEntryAsyncQueue. On top of this, I have no
evidence that logging works at all, which makes debugging problems really
fun and exciting.
All of the pieces are there to get Java Driven mode to work, but it
doesn't look like it actually *does* work. Of course, it's hard to tell,
because there's no installation/configuration documentation for the Java
driver! That's only compounded by the fact that the link on the downloads
page doesn't even really point to the 0.6.0 Java driver; it points to the
0.5.0 driver.
Can anyone confirm whether it works for them, by pulling down the archive
and running the Ant script?

If, as I suspect, it isn't working at all, then I'd like to volunteer to
resuscitate it. (Furthermore, I think it'd be a terrible loss if it went
away permanently in 0.7.0!)
Using a Java driver in Selenium should be a winning combination for the
Java (JSF) web application I'm testing... it would make it really easy for
me to use the Java business objects to configure the back end, then
initiate browser connections to verify functionality in the UI.
If if Selenium is Javascript-only, then I won't have any way to directly
verify that actions in the UI have had the correct effect on the database;
I'll only be able to verify them *using* the UI, which just makes my life
more difficult.
Thanks for reading all this. Please let me know if Java driven mode works
for you and, if not, whether I can help in fixing it.
-Dan
