    medium severity tasks

    • [docs] Write a tutorial that shows how to test EJBs.
    • [samples] Add a sample that shows how to test EJBs.
    • [design] Add support for testing custom JSP Taglibs (suggested by Sohail Aslam) + tutorial + sample
    • [design] Add support for testing Servlet API 2.3 Filters. (assigned to VMA)
    • [design] Provide support for easier testing of EJBs by writing an EJB Redirector (which is a EJB Session Bean) so that it is possible to test EJB methods that uses EJB container API like security checks, transaction, JNDI calls, ... (requested by notyy). (assigned to BNA)

    low severity tasks

    • [docs] Write a Cactus integration tutorial for JBuilder 4.
    • [docs] Write a Cactus integration tutorial for VAJava 3.5.
    • [build] Add Ant scripts to support WebLogic 6.0.
    • [code] Handle getRealPath(), getPathTranslated() in the ServletRedirectorRequest class.
    • [code] Add API in ServletTestRequest to send data to the URL connection output stream. This is to easily test code that sends bytes of data as POST data to the servlet (requested by Daniel Cohen and custommonkey).
    • [code] Automatically add the query string parameters defined when using the ServletTestRequest.setURL() API to the list of parameters passed to the server redirector, so that it won't be necessary to call ServletTestRequest.addParameter() for each of these parameters.
    • [code] Check why zipped distributable files have a mode of 644 on unix systems (it should rather be 755). Thanks to Jason Crickmer.
    • [docs] Add a FAQ entry for explaining unit testing of persistent sessions.

    wish severity tasks

    • [code] Create a Cactus Doclet. This will introduce new javadoc tags (like the EJBDoclet) that will be used by the javadoc command to do several things : generate test classes and test methods, generate richer documentation. Indeed, the best documentation for a method is it's test methods that show how to use it effectively. So maybe we could append to the HTML javadoc for a method the java test method code as an example.
    • [code] Integration for Netbeans by integration with the Netbeans XTest module.
    • [code] Look at JXUnit to see if an integration with Cactus can be done (proposed by Will Sargent).
