Hi Pete, Yes, you've found the only possible way as of now to perform integration testing with Maven 2. As you say yourself, Maven 2 need to offer better support for integration testing to make it more streamlined and less complex.
Thanks a lot for your feedback! -Vincent PS: Would you be interested in helping us implement existing configuration support for Orion/OC4J? If so, please join us on the Cargo dev list and we can discuss it! > -----Original Message----- > From: Pete [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: samedi 11 février 2006 21:41 > To: Maven Users List > Subject: Re: How to bind execution of integration tests to integration- > test phase > > I have achieved integration testing (both JunitEE/Cactus and JUnits > calling > remote interfaces) in M2 using a very simple lightweight POM for each > discrete task/execution in the integration phase e.g. > > + runtests-integration > pom.xml (parent pom, invoking child modules in the order below) > + rebuild-database > pom.xml (antrun) > + start-container > pom.xml (antrun or cargo) > + runtests-serverside (runs junits needing server started as they > invoke remote interfaces) > pom.xml (surefire:test) > + runtests-incontainer-tests > pom.xml (antrun for running JUnitEE or Cactus incontainer > tests) > + stop-container > pom.xml (antrun or cargo) > > All plugins above bound to the integration-test phase > > I found this approach also necessary, because you can only have one > instance > of the antRun plugin for the integration-test phase, therefore you can't > use > antrun, then surefire, then antrun again as the last antrun overrides the > first if they are bound to the same phase. > > I did want to use Cargo, but unfortunately there was no support for OC4J > with an existing configuration. > > I have the above 'runtests-integration' suite only execute if the M2 build > profile is set to -Pintegrationtests.
