Abstract
Applying XP Tools to J2EE for Extreme Programming is a half day technical tutorial that focuses on using Open Source Software tools to apply XP to Enterprise Java development, specifically for testing web components. This session will mainly encompass automating the build & integration process and automating the testing process.
Essentially this tutorial is a cookbook on how to implement XP methodology in an Enterprise Java shop. XP is the methodology, i.e., the philosophy. Ant, JUnit, etc., that helps developers realize the XP philosophy in a J2EE environment.
XP is comprised of much more than testing, integration & build tools, but testing and integration tools are one way that XP materializes in the development process. This tutorial covers the day-to-day application of XP tools - not the full XP process and methodology. Specifically, this session will cover testing web components with JUnit, Cactus, JUnitPerf, HttpUnit, Ant, and JMeter.
