Controller Integration tests, XML and Dates

[Shin Tai]

Hi,

I'm not sure why but my Date objects are being formatted differently
in my tests to my browser.

I have a controller that uses a builder to create XML which I write to
a StringWriter and then output using a render(contentType:
"application/xml", text: writer.toString())

In my tests, a println of controller.response.getContentAsString() shows:

<start>Thu Mar 10 09:08:05 GMT 2011</start>

But a GET from my browser shows:

<start>2011-03-02 10:00:00.0</start>

Am I just looking at a difference because of how the
mockHttpServletResponse works? I may just switch to a functional test.

Thanks,
Shin

It's ok, panic over.

Setting the format explicitly when I'm building the XML seems to make
it consistent.
