The universal, Web browser-based Enterprise JavaBean (EJB) test client is itself
a Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) application packaged in a Web archive file.
This archive, when extracted, consists of a set of files that are installed on
a target application server. The installation makes it possible for a user of a
Web browser on a workstation remote from the application server to perform a number
of tests on, and invoke, methods in EJB beans that are installed on the staging,
or even production, servers. It is also possible to perform tests in real time
under real conditions.
