testing borders with WicketTester
Hi
Is it possible (if not why?) to test Border components in a way similar to
testing Panels ? -WicketTester.startPanel(TestPanelSource) ? Its strange
but I cant find corresponding method for Borders.
Thanks in advance.

Re: testing borders with WicketTester

I still dont get it, maybe I miss something but I think that borders also
have everything they need to render them selves.
When you provide empty body to border it will render itself and you will be
able to test it (the same way you test panel).
I know that sometimes it will be nesessery to provide some expected body to
border to test it(and then probably you are forced to write some panel/page)
but there are cases when you could test it with some stub, static, hardcoded
body.
I know that now it is possible to test such borders so its not limitation of
WicketTester but it would be conveniently if WicketTester could support
testing borders with some predefined body easiler.
Its not about limitation of WicketTester ,its about providing functionality
to easier test such borders.
What do you think about it ?
I know that it is possible to create a generic panel/page to test borders
but it is also easy to create generic page to work with panels, but despite
this WicketTester provides method to test panels but doesnt provide similar
method to test borders(borders which you could test with some stub body).

self contained in that the page and panel has everything they need to
render themselves. a border is meant to be embedded in a page or
panel, not work independently. anyways, its really easy to create a
generic panel to facilitate the testing of borders.

Re: testing borders with WicketTester

No, I think you misunderstood me, when I wrote about empty body I was
thinking about testing, I know that border without its body works like panel
and shouldnt be used in such case.
I was writing about borders which have bodies, but during testing I was
interested in testing such borders with some 'stub' (ie empty) body.

Are you sure you don't want to use markup inheritance rather than borders?

Re: testing borders with WicketTester

Sorry, but I dont get your point...
What do you mean self contained (in terms of Wicket API) ?
Im sure there is a lot of user created border components which contain a lot
of surrounding markup and components and it is very desireble(at least for
me :)) to be able to 'unit' test such components with Wicket tester,
regardles (i.e with empty) to border body.
Does method Im looking for was not provided because of technical problems ?
If so what is the simplest way to test border components (surrounding markup
and components) with i.e empty body ?

borders are not meant to be self-contained like panels. they are meant
to be used within something that contains markup, eg page or panel.
