I always test against my real production struts.xml because I need to be sure
it is correct. I want my test to ensure the Actions, Results, and
Interceptors are all configured correctly.

I see your struts-test package does NOT extends="struts-default",  so you
are missing all the default configuration for interceptors etc. This may be
a big part of the problem.

As far as the objectFactory goes; if you are using Spring I can't really
help you as I don't use it.  My understanding is the objectFactory is what
Struts uses to create the Actions.  So if you want to create your own
actions and inject your own mock services etc. (and not use Spring) then you
may need to write your own objectFactory to do this.  And of course you
would have to configure struts to use your objectFactory.

Also I just updated StrutsTestContext
 at http://glindholm.wordpress.com/2008/06/30/unit-testing-struts-2-actions/
as there was a small tweak needed to support Struts 2.1.6.
StrutsTestContext.createActionProxy() now creates and sets the ActionContext
since it is no longer created lazily.
