+1 from me, I'm assuming you meant move the tests currently in
transformer to interop and not creating interop/transformer.
I'll look at combining the transformer tests into interop

I apologize if I missed it in an earlier thread but why would the build
need to copy the files around?
No problem. I wasn't very clear. The question was motivated by needing to
use all of the resource (XSDs etc) in the common module in the other test
modules. I.e. I want to use the same XSD across tests but don't want to
create manual copies=. How do the processors in each test access the common
resources?

Wouldn't it be simpler to just run it as part of the build and not check
in the generated tests, to make sure that they are always up to date?
I had originally though that parts of the test would have to be hand crafted
but I expect as we add more types this will be impractical so maybe you are
right.

I was looking for the generator but couldn't find it, can you point us
to it? Thanks.
Sorry about that. Am trying to check it in at the moment. Was just trying to
work out this resource dependency thing.
