This is a combination of a two-part article on Spring Roo and Testing I originally posted on rimple.com, where I write about Spring Roo topics periodically around my book, Spring Roo in Action., co-authored with InfoQ's Srini Penchikala..
You may find more information about writing Roo add-ons from my recent ETE / Richmond JUG presentation, Leaping Forward with Roo add-ons.
How to test Roo add-ons
I'm working on updates to several Roo add-ons, which I am going to be pushing out to the Silly Weasel Roo repository soon. Here are some challenges and how I overcame them.
Our examples work against the Silly Weasel Coffeescript add-on, which is an extension of the one I started in the book. Over time, we'll be ramping up the features of that add-on to support the major features of the Maven Plug-In itself.
