Hi, I've got a Maven1 project building under Continuum, but now have some unit tests that need to connect to a database.
When I just run the tests on my box via Maven then I leave the username / password blank so it uses the integrated security and picks up the username / password of the current user, which is great and works nicely. But when running under Continuum this doesn't work as the account it's running as doesn't have DB access. Now due to various audit / security policies in place here giving that account access to the db isn't an option. Now the only working solution I've come up with so far is to specify system properties on the command line which give the username and password. These can then be specified in the arguments section on the project build definition page in Continuum. BUT. Those values are publicly viewable, i.e. everybody can see the password and I'm not exactly keen on that. Access to the build box is more restricted so a solution based on a local file there would be better (even if the password has to be stored as plain text) Anybody got any suggestions? I would just put the properties in the local build.properties file for the project on the build box, but that gets blown away by the CVS update. thanks James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the designated recipient(s) named above.
