TPTP work with Cactus or is there an equivalent. Any pointers to tutorials
etc would be greatly appreciated.

I realize that I did not provide enough detail. Here is a better question..

We have a suite of tests for a J2EE application that are built using JUnit,
Ant,
and use Cactus. We are in the process of moving all of these to TPTP. Our
existing framework basically does the following:

1. Uses ANT targets to setup metadata in our application for the test.This
step uses a custom upload program to call into our server to load a bunch of
metadata stored in XML form.
2. Calls the Junit target to execute the test suite. Our test siites
normally have atleast 20 tests operating on the same base metadata loaded in
step #1.
3. Uses ANT to clear up the metadata in preparation for the next test.

Can I do the same set of sequences, using the TPTP framework, with or
without ANT? I really would like to get away from our ANT based strategy,
but need some pointers in terms if that is possible with TPTP.

Hi Shankar,
Our apologies for the late reply.

TPTP Test provides a framework for test and performance tooling. We
implement various test tools on our test framework including manual, JUnit
(stand-alone and plug-in), URL and GUI test types. For our JUnit test
tooling, we wrap the JUnit framework with test, behavior and execution EMF
models, UI and execution environment including automated services,
datapools, test logs and BIRT reporting. For your case, you could continue
with your ANT-based approach and convert your JUnit tests to TPTP JUnit
tests using the wizard and use the Automated Services Framework (ASF) to run
your tests via a lightweight scripting language, such as ANT (after the
ANT-driven set-up is completed). This way, you get the rich test execution
environment, datapools, test logs and BIRT reporting. On the performance
side, you can also use the URL performance test type for performance testing
your web-based applications. For more information, consult the product
documentation (Help >> Help n>> Testing Applications) or the following
tutorials:
