Unit testing within a container.

Problem: how can we test our code which relies on services provided by a JEE container ?

• Write stubs which provide a fake version of these services

Drawback: writing these extra classes - as well as pluging them in - will require extra work. Moreover, the tested behaviour will not be the same as customer production code.

• A better solution ?

Embed your unit tests in Tomcat:
