This project is a set of tests for a patch to Apache Axis2. It uses JRuby, Test::Unit, Rack (for service mock responses) Also there's some simple Maven integration for 'require'-ing java libs in your local repo.

3) build Axis2 with changes (both versions): rake build_axis2
3) generate axis2 clients for testing: (from this project's root) a) (with 1.5.3-SNAPSHOT jars - DEFAULT) rake generate_artifacts b) (with SNAPSHOT jars) rake generate_artifacts AXIS_VERSION=SNAPSHOT
4) run the tests: a) (with 1.5.3-SNAPSHOT jars - DEFAULT) rake test b) (with SNAPSHOT jars) rake test AXIS_VERSION=SNAPSHOT
