Rewrite it like:

     public void setUp() {
         try {
             super.setUp(); // !!!!!!!!!!!
             setConfigFile("E:/CBB/xml/web/UI");
         } catch(Exception e) {}
     }

     public SearchXtantActionTest(String testName) {
         super(testName);
     }


The reason you're getting the exception is that you're trying to set the
config file in the constructor - which is called before setUp has been
called. You cant set the config file (or do anything really) until after
super.setUp() has been called.

While we're talking about it, I've been thinking of submitting a patch to
StrutsTestCase to allow you to override having the Struts environment reset
between test methods. I'm pretty sure I could make the change in just one
or two classes. This is really against the JUnit philosophy - but it would
be really useful and convenient. Would anyone else support this?
