This certainly looks interesting. As I personally never used such
tools, I am in no position to comment on their usefulness and on the
various alternatives. Cayenne test suite deviates from the classic unit
test approach as it tries to make assertions about external libraries
and systems (such as different JDBC drivers and DBs). I wonder how this
fits into the picture?
Anyway, so how about we give it a try and see what results we get?
On a side note, I was looking at JUnit alternatives such as TestNG
(http://www.beust.com/testng/) for our test suite, as we are using lots
of custom not-so-clean code to bootstrap Cayenne and work around JUnit
initialization limitations. Looks like Cobertura is agnostic to the
underlying test infrastructure?
