we need to do some integration testing of some Java classes which we want to run inside a Weblogic server. We have a JUnit test suite that runs a set of Junit test classes, and I would like to know if is a good idea to write a JSP that runs the test suite and prints out the results in a graphical way, in case we won’t be able to access via SSH to the server and run the tests via console.
- Step 1: We upload the jar file with the tests and the JSP
- Step 2: We call the JSP via a browser
- Step 3: Profit! Our tests are running and we have visual feedback.
Am I right or wrong? Thanks for your advices!
You should be able to use Cactus to do this,
See the following article for reference:

That should save you having to write extra code, not sure about visual feedback but the Cactus page seems to suggest that when running in a servlet container like Tomcat you should get the results visually:
