Hello - I currently have a set of JUnit tests that I run in my container (JRun) because they require JNDI. I would like to integrate these tests into our build (using Ant), so I've been trying to determine if Cactus would allow me to do that. I have been reviewing the docs for a couple of days, and trying to get something to work, but I'm still unclear as to whether this will even be possible.
The first approach I tried was to define the testTarget called by my runservertests Ant task as follows: <target name="junit-persistence-tests" depends="compile,prepare-testdirs"> <junit printsummary="on" fork="true" haltonerror="true"> <classpath> <pathelement location="${portal.deploy}/classes" /> <path refid="unittest.classpath" /> </classpath> <test name="com.triactive.test.CommonPersistenceTestDefinition" /> </junit> </target> com.triactive.test.CommonPersistenceTestDefinition defines the suite of JUnit tests that need to run in the container (via the suite() method). There is a setup step that is performed prior to running the tests using a subclass of the JUnit TestSetup class. This step reads some data from files and inserts it into the database. That works fine. Then, an attempt is made to store an object in the JNDI directory that will be used by subsequent tests. That's where I run into trouble. I get the following exception: [junit] javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file: java.naming.factory.initial [junit] at javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(NamingManager.java:638) [junit] at javax.naming.InitialContext.getDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java:241) [junit] at javax.naming.InitialContext.getURLOrDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java:278) [junit] at javax.naming.InitialContext.destroySubcontext(InitialContext.java:403) [junit] at com.triactive.test.PersistenceTestUtil.setTestCompany(PersistenceTestUtil.ja va:41) [junit] at com.triactive.test.PersistenceTestSetup.setUp(PersistenceTestSetup.java:63) [junit] at junit.extensions.TestSetup$1.protect(TestSetup.java:18) [junit] at junit.framework.TestResult.runProtected(TestResult.java:124) [junit] at junit.extensions.TestSetup.run(TestSetup.java:23) [junit] at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junit.JUnitTestRunner.run(JUnitTestRu nner.java:231) [junit] at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junit.JUnitTestRunner.main(JUnitTestR unner.java:409) Does the test in my testTarget need to be a subclass of ServletTestCase or one of the other Cactus TestCase types? If so, I'm confused about how I would define that test to run my existing JUnit test suite in the container. Any help would be appreciated. I may be on the wrong track completely, but the Cactus docs led me to think that this was something I should be able to do. I was hoping I could use my existing test hierarchy to work within this framework though. Thanks!
