Re: [sca-assembly] Another conformance test question

Jim,

The reason that the contribution names
are passed in this way is that the computation of the URLs for the
contributions is handled generically
in the base test class.  

At the moment, the runtime specific
code does not have to handle the properties file that allows things to
be configured.  I suppose this
could be changed but I don't see any particular advantage.

Sorry for sending these comments piecemeal...

Why are contribution names passed to:

RuntimeBridge.startContribution(String contributionLocation,    
String[] contributionNames)

when they appear to be the same as those set in:

RuntimeBridge.setTestConfiguration(TestConfiguration testConfiguration)?

Assuming they are the same,  I think it would be clearer to pass an
 
immutable object to the startContribution method such as:

RuntimeBridge.startContribution(TestConfiguration configuration)
