Hi JV,
We need to add functional tests for the Watchlist feature. Do you think you could make sure to add tests for it?
I think we have 2 possible approaches:
1) unit testing, which means we catch the email before it's sent and verify that it contains the correct things. 2) functional testing. This can be done very easily using Selenium and using a tool like Dumbster inside the Selenium test. For an example of using Dumbster, see http://quintanasoft.com/dumbster/#Examples
Note that Dumbster is already in the central maven repo so it should be dead easy to use.
Another possible tool to use is James (http://james.apache.org/)
+1 for 2) since it'll allow to test the feature both on UI and backend sides. I'll work on it tomorrow. JV.
