Also, If Canoo is some web testing tool like Latka ( see http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/latka ), then it should have a bridge to allow it's web test scripts to be run via JUnit....If it's got an ant task, just put that in your build file. > everytime I create a new web app, I have to copy all the various .css and > .xsl stylesheets into the webapp, which means the updating my webapps for a > new version of Canoo is labor intensive.

Ok, here I disagree. There's already a spot for integration tests in the POM, admittedly via cactus, but I don't see what canoo would add to the model of a project - why not just update the build-tests.xml file and set some properties....I've been able to use maven:test to run web tests with Latka with no change to the POM.... > Eric -- dIon Gillard, Multitask Consulting Work: http://www.multitask.com.au Developers: http://adslgateway.multitask.com.au/developers
