Initialization of Servlets with IBM WSAD 4.0?

[Thomas Kettenbach <ke...@prostep.de>]

The servlets i like to test need some init-params provided in the web.xml
file for my web-app. If i create a servlet within a cactus test case, are
these
parameters automaticly provided by the ServletRedirector? Or do i need
to configure something?

Please help,
Thomas

With the current version, you have 2 solutions :

* Solution 1 : put these init-parameter under the configuration of the
ServletRedirector, in web.xml. The config implicit object that is provided
will then contain the data.
* Solution 2 : use the config.setInitParameter(name, value) at the beginning
of your testXXX() method. Then any subsequent call to
config.getInitParameterNames() or config.getInitParameter(name) will return
the values you have set up.

Here is an example extracted from TestServletTestCase2.java (from the sample
application provided with cactus) :

    /**
     * Verify that we can add parameters to the config list of parameters
     * programatically, without having to define them in
<code>web.xml</code>.
     */
    public void testSetConfigParameter()
    {
        config.setInitParameter("testparam", "test value");

        assertEquals("test value", config.getInitParameter("testparam"));

        boolean found = false;
        Enumeration enum = config.getInitParameterNames();
        while(enum.hasMoreElements()) {
            String name = (String)enum.nextElement();
            if (name.equals("testparam")) {
                found = true;
                break;
            }
        }

        assert("[testparam] not found in parameter names", found);
    }

Hope it helps
-Vincent
