The Haxe language has lots of libraries, including unit tests:<br></div><div><br></div><div>class TCK {<br><div><br></div></div><div> test1( ) { ... }<br></div><div> test2( ) { ... }<br></div><div> etc<br></div><div><br></div><div> void Main(IHotRodClient client)<br></div><div> new TCK(client).run()<br></div><div>}<br></div><div><br></div><div>3) Cross compile the TCK and distribute it as jar, dll, js, etc<br></div><div>4) Each Hot Rod client consumes the artifact above<br></div><div>5) Each Hot Rod runs the TCK passing its implementation of IHotRodClient</div><div>6) Profit</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div>It takes 6 steps to profit?!</div><div><br></div><div>I think the idea of writing the TCK once and being able to generate the code in the native language of the client is a great idea. The issue will be when we have a Hot Rod client in a language that Haxe doesn't support.
