| Description: | MockEJB is a lightweight framework for running EJBs. MockEJB implements javax.ejb APIs and creates Home and EJBObject implementation classes for your EJBs. Internally, MockEJB relies on dynamic proxies and interceptors. MockEJB has two primary usages:
* It allows for running EJBs outside of the container for unit testing.You can run EJBs directly from your favorite IDE with the minimal setup effort.
* It allows for deploying mock EJBs (i.e., mock EJB implementation classes) into the container. Mock EJBs provide very effective way of isolating EJBs under test from the rest of the application. Mock EJBs return predefined test data and can override the actual "non-mock" deployed EJBs. Once again, the purpose of MockEJB is twofold and it works inside and outside of the container. So you can benefit from it even if you continue running all your test classes inside the container using Cactus.
