17 August 2005 - Jakarta Cactus 1.7.1 Released

The Jakarta Cactus project is pleased to announce the release of version 1.7.1. Cactus is a unit testing framework for testing server side java code.

Goals
-----

This a checkpoint release, as Cactus 1.8 will be refactored to use Cargo for container management. As such, a new branch will be created for 1.7 releases (but hopefully no other release will be necessary before 1.8).

Main new features
-----------------

• Cactus now uses Cargo for the CactifyEar task
• JDK 1.2 and 1.3 are no longer supported

Changes
-------

Please check the Changes page at http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/changes.html for a full list of the changes in version 1.7.1.

Known limitations and bugs:
---------------------------

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.
