JtestR
JtestR is a tool that will make it easier to test Java code with state of the art Ruby tools. The main project is a collection of Ruby libraries bundled together with JRuby integration so that running tests is totally painless to set up. The project also includes a background server so that the startup cost of JRuby can be avoided. Examples of Ruby libraries included are RSpec, dust, Test/Unit, mocha and ActiveSupport.
The vision of the project is to be the testing tool of choice for Java projects, offering nice Ant, Maven and buildr integration. It will also support integration testing with common Ruby libraries like Ruby/LDAP and ActiveRecord, while still providing access to Java libraries and helpers.

Quickly after the initial release, 0.1.1 of JtestR has been released with some important bug fixes and one new feature:
- [Bug] The classpath configuration sometimes made JtestR fail with type conversion errors
- [Bug] The BackgroundServer would die if you tried to run on a code base with only Test::Unit or RSpec tests (JTESTR-29)
- [Bug] Setting different outputlevels through the Ant configuration always failed with a message that the specified value was not allowed.
- [Feature] Added an ignore-option to the configuration, so that Ruby files in the test directory can be ignored. See Getting Started for more info.

Since the project inception almost a month ago, lots of work has been put into making JtestR a really viable testing solution for everyday Java usage. I'm happy to report that we are now almost ready to go public. Some more documentation needs to be finished, and the Maven support should be fleshed out. But after that it's a wrap.
Prepare the Champagne.
