All you'd need to do is expose have some method I can call
before/after, and I could do it manually. I'm using TestBase right now
because it exposes public methods (at least for the vital
newInstance() support). In the end JUnit and TestNG don't differ that
much. All the differences really boil down to at the code level is the
syntax for how to specify what runs first and what gets run. The logic
behind any test helper utility like tapestry-test can and should be
easily abstractable so it does not depend on any specific testing
framework.

Yes for reasons like this . :)

I would be ok with supporting junit (somehow) but don't know how the
EasyMock parts are supposed to get handled there as the top level base class
(which isn't BaseComponentTestCase) relies on @BeforeMethod / @AfterMethod
annotations to do before/after cleanup calls.

Either way I could certainly make a lot of the base methods static on some
other class so that you can do static imports of them - they will just have
to methods not relying on mock objects or state of any kind. (of which there
are few)
