org.apache.velocity.test
Class TemplateTestCase

java.lang.Object
  junit.framework.Assert
      junit.framework.TestCase
          org.apache.velocity.test.BaseTestCase
              org.apache.velocity.test.TemplateTestCase

All Implemented Interfaces:

junit.framework.Test, TemplateTestBase

public class TemplateTestCase
extends BaseTestCase
implements TemplateTestBase

Easily add test cases which evaluate templates and check their output. NOTE: This class DOES NOT extend RuntimeTestCase because the TemplateTestSuite already initializes the Velocity runtime and adds the template test cases. Having this class extend RuntimeTestCase causes the Runtime to be initialized twice which is not good. I only discovered this after a couple hours of wondering why all the properties being setup were ending up as Vectors. At first I thought it was a problem with the Configuration class, but the Runtime was being initialized twice: so the first time the property is seen it's stored as a String, the second time it's seen the Configuration class makes a Vector with both Strings. As a result all the getBoolean(property) calls were failing because the Configurations class was trying to create a Boolean from a Vector which doesn't really work that well. I have learned my lesson and now have to add some code to make sure the Runtime isn't initialized more then once :-)
