I switched to injecting connections with Hivemind and I would say it's well worth the effort. I could never figure out how to test code when using the Tomcat database connections but with the Hivemind method you can just get a connection and add it to the objects you want to test.
There is an example in the tapestry-examples/TimeTracker application. It's a bit difficult to setup the first time and involves Hivemind and Java Proxies, but in the end it's well worth the effort. I also create a separate Eclipse project called TestDB that can create test database connections the in my test code I do this private static Repository repository; @BeforeClass public static void setUpBeforeClass() throws Exception { repository = Repository.newTestInstance(TestConnection.getConnection()); } --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
