Hi Easy: Spring. It's all done with configuration. In a no "EJB container available" setting, you configure spring to return a different service than when you have EJB container available.

So how do you isolate your Web Layer from the EJB layer during testing and then re-establish the linkage during deployment in your environment? - Brendan -----Original Message----- From: Hermod Opstvedt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 16, 2006 2:59 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: SV: Re: [SHALE] Using the Test Framework Hi I totally agree with Craig. There is a huge difference between Unit testing and Integration testing. We do both, using different tooling for the different test types.

For that cult, the Shale test framework would snap right in. Another way to look at this is to think about what is the scope of a "unit test". Conceptually, I would think of two *different* unit tests being needed in this environment: * A unit test for the backing bean (Shale view controller or whatever). To test this bean, you would need to mock out the session bean itself. (And, the test framework should provide JNDI lookup mocking, which the Shale test frameworkd doesn't have yet). * A unit test for the session bean itself. For this, you'd want a framework that mocks the EJB environment, and would have nothing to do with JSF or web tier APIs. It's possible that you also want a more end-to-end test -- but to me that's a "system integration" test, rather than unit tests.
