1. Introduction

When developing for AMX, please also refer to the  AMX Internal Developer's Guide (glassfish/admin-core/mbeanapi/src/java/com/sun/enterprise/management
/doc-files/amx-internal-developer-guide.html).

The unit tests for AMX are written using JUnit as the framework.  When you introduce a new AMX MBean, or modify an existing one, you must write a new unit test and/or add/change existing unit tests to correspond to the changes you've made.  This is a requirement before you check in changes to the AMX interfaces or implementation.  Code should also be reviewed by amx-dev@sun.com.
