Testing in Arquillian with Docker Containers

Software Testing Magazine — Mon, 08 May 2017 13:31:23 +0000

Arquillian is an open source testing platform for the JVM that enables to easily create automated integration, functional and acceptance tests for Java middleware. In this article, Alex Soto presents three options to use Arquillian Cube to manager Docker containers from Arquillian. Author: Alex Soto, http://www.lordofthejars.com/ Arquillian Cube is an Arquillian extension that can be used to manager Docker containers from Arquillian. With this extension, you can start a Docker container(s), execute Arquillian tests and after that shutdown the container(s). The first thing you need to do is add Arquillian Cube dependency. This can be done by using the Arquillian Universe approach: <dependencyManagement> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.arquillian</groupId> <artifactId>arquillian-universe</artifactId> <version>${version.arquillian_universe}</version> <scope>import</scope> <type>pom</type> </dependency> </dependencies> </dependencyManagement> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.arquillian.universe</groupId> <artifactId>arquillian-junit-standalone</artifactId> <scope>test</scope> <type>pom</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>junit</groupId> <artifactId>junit</artifactId> <version>${version.junit}</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.arquillian.universe</groupId> <artifactId>arquillian-cube-docker</artifactId> <scope>test</scope> <type>pom</type> </dependency> </dependencies> Then you have three ways of defining the containers you want to start. The first approach is using the docker-compose format. You only need to define the docker-compose file required for your tests, and Arquillian Cube automatically reads it, start all containers, execute the tests and finally after that they stop and remove them. version: '2' services: pingpong: image: jonmorehouse/ping-pong ports: - "8080:8080" networks: app_net: ipv4_address: 172.16.238.10 ipv6_address: 2001:3984:3989::10 front: back: networks: front: driver: bridge back: driver: bridge app_net: driver: bridge driver_opts: com.docker.network.enable_ipv6: "true" ipam: driver: default config: - subnet: 172.16.238.0/24 gateway: 172.16.238.1 - subnet: 2001:3984:3989::/64 gateway: 2001:3984:3989::1 @RunWith(Arquillian.class) public class PingPongTest { @HostIp String ip; @HostPort(containerName = "pingpong", value = 8080) int port; @Test public void [...]

Testable Java EE Development

Software Testing Magazine — Mon, 04 May 2015 14:47:55 +0000

This presentation pulls a variety of examples in testable development from the speaker book “Continuous Enterprise Development in Java” published by O’Reilly. It includes a review of the sections on RESTful services, UI verification, transactions and security. It also covers other areas of the Java EE platform that have historically been branded as “difficult to test”. The session spends a lot of time in the IDE, with examples that are freely available to fork and run. Video producer: Virtual JBoss User Group

Testing JSF Applications with Arquillian and Selenium

Software Testing Magazine — Thu, 28 Feb 2013 17:54:21 +0000

Learn how to perform functional testing on JSF applications with Arquillian and Selenium. In modern development environments, it’s a must to include testing of Web applications as a standard part of the development lifecycle. Such tests can also be used as acceptance criteria in enterprise projects. Although full automation is possible, it is considered to be very expensive. As a result, in projects where testing is included as part of the project plan, it is also often the first requirement cut when the project schedule begins to slip.

Testing Legacy Servers with Arquillian

Software Testing Magazine — Fri, 08 Jun 2012 13:21:36 +0000

Arquillian is a open source platform sponsored by JBoss that simplifies the testing of Java middleware. It brings your test to the runtime, freeing you from the concern of managing the runtime from your test and letting you focused on writing your integration test logic. This blog post by Nikolas Frankel explains how to to test Java EE components on JBoss 5.1 EAP with Arquilian and TestNG. His conclusion is that Arquillian seems to be a nice in-container testing framework but seems to have to be polished around some corners. The usage of TestNG may be the culprit here.

Testing a Java EE Container with Mockito and Arquillian

Software Testing Magazine — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 13:53:35 +0000

The testing strategy to adopt when you you run your code inside a Java EE container is the topic discussed in this blog post by Antonio Goncalves. To solve this issue, he presents a detailed step by step process to unit test an EJB with Mockito and how to do integration test with and without Arquillian with code samples. His conclusion is that since Java EE 6 it is now easy to use container and services in an embedded mode. Unit testing is good to test business code or code in isolation (mocking external components) but you have to remember that you should also use integration testing to test code interacting with external components or services.

Functional Testing with Arquillian

Software Testing Magazine — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 05:34:27 +0000

This article explains how to use Arquillian to test a web UI of the application you are building. The mission of the Arquillian project is to provide a simple test harness that abstracts away all container lifecycle and deployment from the test logic so developers can easily produce a broad range of integration tests for their enterprise Java applications. This article exercises the following tools: Arquillian, Arquillian Drone, ShrinkWrap Maven Resolver and Selenium.
