Hi Lance,

Thanks for addressing my points. Here my answer to those things which weren't in full agreement yet:

ok, maybe it's a good idea to do this here and gradually move all testng tests over.

I think you missed that one

Hm, I needed to look twice to grasp it. So, I'd still prefer something with "manifest" in the variable name. But I leave it to you since it's probably a personal taste thing ��

However, two more things here:

The Javadoc of verify says (line 412):
* @param attributes  Is there a Manifest to check

You should rather go with the Javadoc of validateManifest here as well:
* @param attributes A Map containing the attributes expected in the Manifest;
*                   otherwise empty

Also, I spotted in the Javadoc, line 413:
* @param entries     Entries to validate are in the JAR

I guess the "are" is wrong here.

Ok, leave it as you have it ��

OK.

Looks good, apart from my comments above.

Thanks
