In the past, testing your JSF application was considered difficult, if not impossible. However, with the new tools included in JSFUnit, you can create outstanding test coverage that rivals or beats the tests you would write for other frameworks. You can even do test-driven development and continuous integration, which was virtually unheard of in the JSF world before.
JSFSpy instruments your JSF application to record everything that happened in multiple requests over multiple sessions. It's similar to being able to see the Facelets error page for all previous requests. The difference is that JSFSpy provides a lot more information, including state transitions of scoped data, performance stats, and a complete dump of the HttpServletRequest.
We'll also talk about how to extend JSFSpy using a new idea called WARlets.

JSFSpy is written for JSF 2, so it includes things like the ability to track data in custom scopes. We'll talk about how JSFSpy uses new JSF features and also how it takes advantage of Servlet 3.0 features to make it into a simple, WAR add-on that only requires a jar inside WEB-INF/lib. That means that JSFSpy requires no modification to web.xml or faces-config.xml.
