Description

It would be nice to have a method to create a JCas using text and language:

JCasFactory.createJCasWithText("en", "This is a test.");

It could also be considered having such a method in JCasUtil (and CasUtil) to avoid an extra import of JCasFactory, maybe under a more concise name, e.g

JCasUtil.createText("en", "this is a test");
CasUtil.createText("en", "this is a test");
