junit - some questions

Some questions on the Java junit utility...
* Does anybody know of any junit related utilities that can discover from a
given source code path a list of java classes that do not have an equivalent
test class?
* Any web based junit presentation/reporting systems that do more than the
default junit facilities?
* any applications that can link junit results back to a top down 'test
plan' view of the overall testing requirement? (i.e. the test plan would
layout the overall test requirements, whilst junit only records what has
been created to date)

Perhaps Jester will help you.

<http://jester.sourceforge.net/> "Jester finds code that is not covered by tests."

One of the JUnit addons might help you with the above two...

Try Jester or Clover for code coverage.
