--- Comment #13 from Benjamin Muschko <benjamin.musc...@gmail.com> --- I cleaned up my test cases and made them work. Steps to reproduce: 1) git clone git://github.com/bmuschko/tomcat70.git 2) Add modules directory to sources. 3) Add test entry to build.properties: test.entry=org.apache.catalina.loader.TestHandleTypesWebappLoader 4) Run "ant test" You should see the following results: a) Test case 1 finds SpringServletContainerInitializer as the implementation was added as JAR file. [junit] INFO: Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath: [org.apache.tomcat.spring.example.SpringExampleWebApplicationInitializer@3e68cd79] b) Test case 2 doesn't find SpringServletContainerInitializer as the implementation was added as directory. [junit] INFO: No Spring WebApplicationInitializer types detected on classpath I hope this is enough information for you guys to have a look into this issue. Maybe I just don't have the correct setup or am missing a configuration setting. Please let me know if you need more information. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
