  Watchdog overview
  -----------------
  
  Watchdog consists of various JSP and Servlet tests intended to validate
  JSP1.1 and Servlet2.2 API / specification. 
  
  There are two forms of test frameworks:
      - Generic clients: these follow jsp.xml format and are driven by GTest harness 
        This format is applicable to the tests which do not need complex result processing
        on the client side.
      - Specialized clients: these tests follow servlet.xml format and are driven by Moo harness 
        This format should be used where complex processing of the results is required on the 
        client side.
  
  
  Watchdog itself utilizes various other components:
      Ant (ant.jar)
      Moo (moo.jar)
      GTest (testdriver.jar)
  
  
  1. user invokes watchdog.bat or watchdog.sh
  
  2. watchdog.bat or watchdog.sh invoke ant with an xml file and a target in the xml as parameters
  
  3. ant parses the xml file and executes the specified target
  
  3. results are validated by the target either in the form of return codes or golden-files or 
     combinations of both.

  How to Add new tests
  --------------------
  
  JSP Test
  --------
      - Server side of the test
        % cd jakarta-watchdog/src/server/jsp
        % mkdir your-test-dir
        % cd your-test-dir
        % cp ~ your-test-jsp.jsp  .
  
      - Client side of the test
        % cd jakarta-watchdog/src/conf
        % add your-test entry to either jsp.xml or servlet.xml
  
  Servlet Test
  --------
      - Server side of the test
        % cd jakarta-watchdog/src/server/WEB-INF/classes
        % mkdir your-test-dir
        % cd your-test-dir
        % cp ~ your-test-servlet.java  .
  
      - Client side of the test
        % cd jakarta-watchdog/src/conf
        % add your-test entry to either jsp.xml or servlet.xml
  
      - Edit web.xml for configuring servlet mappings
