Spring Test MVC release date?

[ttsu]

Is there a timeline for releasing the spring-test-mvc project [1]? Have there been any plans on doing a beta release?

We'll make a milestone release available soon so you can lock into a specific version vs relying on the nightly snapshot. The code will eventually be added to Spring 3.2.

The code will eventually be added to Spring 3.2.

Spring 3.2 seems like a long ways out. Spring-test-mvc is very useful, but milestone releases are a tough sell in a lot of enterprise projects. Is there any chance this will get versioned and released stand-alone before 3.2?

[Rossen Stoyanchev]

We'll see what we can do ... if it gets to a point where we can call it a 1.0 release before Spring 3.2 is out.

many thanks for the project, coming from places like rails, it is so nice to be able to test your controllers end to end in spring as well.

i, however, had to pull it out from our project for the time being and remove all the tests, since we cannot release with a SNAPSHOT dependency.

so yes, waiting anxiously for a release.

you're welcome and thanks for the feedback!

Upvote for this too. We are interested in spring-test-mvc for testing our application - but can not go with a SNAPSHOT dependency.

Thanks,

The Spring Framework 3.2 M1 milestone was released today. Regrettably, spring-test-mvc does not seem to be included in that release. I tried to add the following lines to my pom:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>repository.springframework.milestone</id>
        <name>Spring Framework Maven Milestone Repository</name>
        <url>http://maven.springframework.org/milestone</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

<!-- more xml -->

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-test-mvc</artifactId>
    <version>3.2.0.M1</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Maven successfully downloaded and installed other Spring 3.2.0.M1 artifacts, but failed to resolve the spring-test-mvc dependency.
