Hello, first congratulations on a new site!
Today I needed some information about how to test my services, so I visited the new site and started browsing. Couldn't find the answer. Can someone give me some pointers here? First I looked in the FAQ and serached for "test" withing the page with my browser. Found 2 irrelavant hits, so I went on to the User guide. There is a section Test, but covers only testing of pages. Inspecting further to Tapestry IOC and eyeballing for something useful I discovered a lin to registry startup, which briefly mentions what would one want to use it: "However, you may want to do some integration testing using the Registry from within a test case," I know there are projects out there, so you can inspect the source code to get an example of how to test the services, but I feel it should be better explained right on the offical page - at least in the FAQ section. It is very hard to embrace testing to start with, so some guidance is much appreciated. And the red background links must go away. The download section should include maven instruction, at least the dependency section of the pom should be listed. There should be more room at the bottom between the last paragraph and the footer. The header on most pages is very "white", the bottom has no space at all. Give it some air. Why is there a Book section in the Documentation with only one link to more books? It look like an error. At least last two books (their images and caption) should be there. I like the ComponentCheetSheet! A sentance or two more on each annotation would be great. The tutorial Setting up your environment should be improved. Alternatives should be described on how to run T5 apps in the Eclipse or other IDEs, but not in the text as that would make it too long. I think there should be links for alternative setups - like how to run the T5 app from a main class and even start VisualVM for early debugging and optimizing (each alternative has pros and cons). There is no mention of m2eclipse plugin. Of course one can use JDK 6 also - only 1.5 is there. There is a sentence: "You should not have to download this directly". Why are then download links on the download page and no mention of maven at the same time. It is confusing for newbs. The should also be a more visible link to T5 wiki somewhere. I hope I wasn't too harsh, just wanna put my perspective. -Borut 2010/11/19 Howard Lewis Ship <hls...@gmail.com> > We're still working out the kinks ... and I've been working hard on > revising > the tutorial ... but at long last, we're debuting the new Tapestry Web > Site: > > http://tapestry.apache.org/ > > Feedback is encouraged; just post to users@tapestry.apache.org with [SITE] > in the subject. > > -- > Howard M.
