Error description
By using a method expression in the Expression Language (EL) within a JavaServer Faces (JSF) Facelet, it should be possible to call a method with parameters in a bean. For example, using a expression: #{testBean.testMethod('testString')} should call the method testMethod(String parameter) in an object of the TestBean class. Furthermore, it should be possible to call methods in nested beans. For example, an expression: #{testBean.testObject.testMethod('myString')} should call the method testMethod(String parameter) on the testObject-variable in the object of the TestBean class.
