You can provide a single package-private setter for all properties which you can use in tests.
@Property private Foo foo; @Property private Bar bar; @Property private Baz baz; void inject(Foo foo, Bar bar, Baz baz){ ... } If you test your pages with PageTester, you often don't need any setters because the page is rendered as in production. http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/guide/unit-testing-pages.html On Sat, Feb 14, 2009 at 12:24 AM, manuel aldana <ald...@gmx.de> wrote: > Tapestry goes for pojos which is good for testing.
