Cactus is a simple test framework for unit testing server-side java code (Servlets, EJBs, Tag Libs, Filters, ...).
The intent of Cactus is to lower the cost of writing tests for server-side code. It uses JUnit and extends it.
Cactus implements an in-container strategy, meaning that tests are executed inside the container.
The Cactus Ecosystem is made of several components:
- The Cactus Framework: This is the heart of Cactus. It is the engine that provides the API to write Cactus tests.
- The Cactus Integration Modules: They are front ends and frameworks that provide easy ways of using the Cactus Framework (Ant scripts, Eclipse plugin, Maven plugin, ...).
- The Cactus Samples: They are simple projects that demonstrate how to write Cactus tests and how to use some of the Integration Modules.
