Thanks Andreas, Karl, and Arjun! Andreas,
I spent some time learning the basics of Pax Exam. One of my particular requirements is JUnit3/Java1.4. I see it mentioned in a JIRA issue that support has been added but cannot find a suitable example of how this works. Ideally for me, the Pax Exam documentation would contain the initial description of what Pax Exam is, and then want to see only a maven-based project with: a) a service definition (public api) b) some implementation (private) c) a test that gets the service and executes a method via junit d) the minimal POM that builds the regular bundle and also runs the junit test The existing example code is helpful but doesn't really answer my immediate needs of getting started quickly, (as one who is not too familiar with Maven yet). Karl, Regarding PojoSR, I probably do not need a full OSGi framework for my tests, so it could be suitable for me. However I need a bit more guidance on how to set up running a test (I can visualize how to compose a test) in Maven. Can you point me to an existing pom.xml that uses PojoSR to execute JUnit tests against a service? Regarding bnd, it seems to utilize Ant makefiles. I'd like to avoid that if possible. Nothing against Ant, in fact I have my own Ant-based osgi test framework, but I'd like to keep the test stuff as simple as I can and keep things in Maven. Arjun, For me, the most difficult part is the Maven integration. I want the tests to run and fail as part of the build. In any case it's good to know you've got that, I'll check it out. thx, ken On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 6:56 PM, Karl Pauls <[email protected]> wrote: > To use PojoSR for testing with your dependencies from maven I guess > you could just use the exec-maven-plugin, hook it up to the test phase > and have it start with all dependencies from the test scope. > > regards, > > Karl > > On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 9:25 AM, Karl Pauls <[email protected]> wrote: >> If you are looking for real integration testing, Pax Exam is probably >> what you want. >> >> However, if you want to test you services without a full OSGi >> framework you might want to have a look at PojoSR: >> >> http://pojosr.googlecode.com >> >> I know that some people use it for JUnit testing their services. >> Finally, bnd itself can be used for testing (we use that in the >> framework) and it is used by the OSGi ct. >> >> regards, >> >> Karl >> >> On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 9:17 AM, Andreas Pieber <[email protected]> wrote: >>> Hey Ken, >>> >>> You might want to give Pax Exam a look for integration tests with OSGi: >>> http://team.ops4j.org/wiki/display/paxexam/Pax+Exam >>> >>> Kind regards, >>> Andreas >>> >>> On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 09:11, Ken Gilmer <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>>> Hi, >>>> >>>> I'd like to begin adding some test cases to the httplite bundle.
