the <batchtest> sample is missing the 'todir' attribute definition that it is supposed to illustrate:

2nd paragraph

Garbled sentence reads:

"This will create a executable web application, as well as a good example of a working, detailed POM file for a realBy default."

The first bit should say "an executable", but that's OK. It's the end of the sentence that's totally nonsensical.

Note from the Author or Editor:
Should read "This will create an executable web application, as well as a good example of a working, detailed POM file."

392 last paragraph, 393 code example

@BeforeClass and @AfterClass cannot be annotated on member methods. Doing so will lead to a runtime error.
They only can be used on static method.
See also
http://junit.sourceforge.net/javadoc_40/org/junit/BeforeClass.html
This also invalidates the example for what those methods can be used.

Note from the Author or Editor:
This is correct - there is a typing error in the code sample on page 393. The @BeforeClass method should read:

@BeforeClass
public static void initialize() {...

And the @AfterClass method should read:

@AfterClass
public static void tidyup() {...

Figure 20-17

The figure doesn't look like a screen shot. Actually it is identical to figure 27-14 entitled "The lifecycle of a bug in Bugzilla". Where can I find proper screenshot?
