The property ‘ant.home’ is about how the test runner is setup, which is controlled by the end user. The other one is about which jvm is running. The end user can certainly change it, but he is then shooting himself in the foot. The ‘ant.home’ is not an unchangeable property like the jvm or the OS. > An > assumption should inform you that the test won't run unless the property is > set, and that's what you wanted: a notification that you can (and must) do > something to run the test. I still need to make the distinction between the thing I cannot change to make the test pass, like the OS, and the things that I can and should fix in the config of my IDE. Nicolas
