Hi Max,

the idea behind this is to have some new mechanism for server requirements similar as it was
in org.jboss.tools.ui.bot.ext [1]. But we need to rewrite and redesign it using reddeer. The new server requirements will be based on xml (not on property files as it was in [1])

I designed xsd file here [2] which describes how such a requirement should look like.
When ready it will let us annotate our test classes with '@Server' annotation and the framework
will setup server adapter automatically in eclipse.

What is http://www.jboss.org/NS/ServerReq ? why are we using a global namespace location for reddeer xml configurations ?


http://www.jboss.org/NS/ServerReq should be a namespace for *jboss* server requirements. This is jboss specific (not reddeer specific) and the code lives in jbosstools-integration-tests repo.

If it's wrong ok, we can change it easily. Any suggestion?

I assume this is some xml we use to define server runtimes - how does this relate to the many other server runtime definitions
that exists ? Is this a format we can use with other things ? if yes - awesome. tell more.

The main intent is to use it in UI tests (the fullfill method [3] should setup server adapter through UI), but we can think about how to use it with pure junit tests as well.
