RE: Can I pass parameters to ServletTestCase ?

I believe that you would have to modify the ServletTestRunner servlet in order to accept parameters.
 
You may want to look into writing a data-driven test instead. When I need configurable test like this, I add a suite() method to the Cactus test to read from a configuration file, such as an XML file. You can then iterate through the configuration file and generate a test case for each item. This way you can just modify the configuration file instead of updating and recompiling the java file every time you want to add a new test case. J.B. Rainsberger's JUnit Recipes has a great chapter on writing data-driven tests.
 
Good luck,
Nick.

	If you are interested in passing parameters, take a look at this page,
	http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/writing/howto_testcase.html, under Step
	6. I haven't actually used this functionality.
	
	I am still having a problem running cactus tests from a JUnit
	TestRunner. The only test runner I can use at this point is
	ServletTestRunner. So, it is not looking like Cactus will be used if I
	can't resolve the problem of running cactus tests from the command line.
	
	I think this forum is sort of dead.
	
	Hope that helps,
	Dan

	Hi,
	
	Can I pass URL parameters to a ServletTestCase ?
	I want to test more and more value with the same test method.
	I don't want to recompile to change value.
	
	I want to use an URL like :
	  http://localhost/ServletTestRunner?suite=my.tests.MyTest&foo=bar
	where "foo" is the parameter name and "bar" is the parameter value.
	
	Thks
