Well, I find WicketTester tests to be so white-box that they
are pretty far from the actual browser anyway, and find them
better for single-component unit tests. Thus I would have 
fixed the original problem by putting the valid and invalid
cases to separate tests methods.

WicketTester tests are not purist unit tests as they use
the file system (to load the markup files) and parse markup
xml which is slowish, but this is not a practical problem 
before you have thousands of tests. Then it might get slow
(over 10 seconds) to run them.

Off-topic: if you use feedback messages, I heartily 
recommend reading _About Face_ by Alan Cooper and checking
out Wicket built-in ajax :)

Best wishes,
Timo
