Interface Proxy

All Known Implementing Classes:

SocketProxy

public interface Proxy

The Proxy stands for remote testing. A proxy is used to transmit test data and result between test JVM (where Jetif running) and application JVM (where application be tested running). There are two parts of the proxy: the proxy and proxy agent. The proxy should handle request from framework and send the request to proxy agent, then the proxy agent will invoke the tests inside application JVM.
The proxy is intended for server-side testing, like the Cactus for JUnit.
A custom proxy should implements this interface to receive request from framework.
