             Summary: Write automated tests to check consistency of Jetty between JBT & Eclipse
                 Key: JBIDE-20674
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-20674
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: browsersim, livereload, target-platform
            Reporter: Mickael Istria


Since it appears Jetty is somehow a "weak" component (ie APIs are often broken and versions are not well managed), we often have to enforce a specific version of Jetty for our JBoss Tools bundles. However, it happens that the version used by JBoss Tools component isn't the same as the one shipped by some other Eclipse components.
We need to make sure that enforcing a version of Jetty doesn't break those Eclipse components. The best way to achieve that is to write a test trying to validate the correct work of any Eclipse component we're aware it's using Jetty, as part of the same test plugin that validates the JBoss Tools components.

The list of identified Eclipse component using Jetty so far:
* Equinox (but I don't know how it uses Jetty, so neither how to make sure it's working well)
* Eclipse Help (test coulod load the help and make sure it shows content and not a 302 or 500 HTTP error)
