- '''N.B.''' The ''struts-examples'' webapp, shipped in the binary distribution, has an example/test page for cancel handling in the ''exercise'' module.
+ === Test Cases ===
+ This bug was tested using the struts-examples webapp (see '''struts-examples.war''' in the binary distribution). If you fire up the examples webapp, select the '''Taglib Test Pages''' link, then select the '''<html:cancel>''' link you will be presented with a page where you can try the '''Cancel''' button for four different configurations.

  None - simply upgarding to Struts 1.2.9 or later removes the ability for someone to launch a DOS attack in this way.
  
+ === Test Cases ===
+ This bug was tested in two ways:
+   * New test case for '''!RequestUtils.populate()''' - The '''!TestRequestUtilsPopulate''' test case was added with the '''testMultipartVisibility()''' test for this bug.
+   *  Using the '''struts-examples''' webapp - (see '''struts-examples.war''' in the binary distribution). If you fire up the examples webapp, select the '''Upload Examples''' link - at the bottom of the page there is a specific test for Bug 38534. To prove that the bug is fixed:
+       * Try the test for Bug 38534 in the Struts 1.2.9 version of the struts-examples webapp.
+       * Drop the Struts 1.2.9 version of '''upload.jsp''' into the Struts 1.2.8 version of the struts-examples webapp and see the devastation caused by the bug without the fix applied.
