This application demonstrates how Java EE applications can be effectively tested using Arquillian. The application contains a set of JUnit tests that you should examine. The tests will be run as part of the Maven build. We used JBoss EAP 7 for the application (see setup instructions below) but it should be easy to port to any Java EE 7 application server such as GlassFish, WildFly, WebLogic or WebSphere.
- Install JBoss EAP 7. It should be a simple matter of downloading the installation jar and running the GUI wizard (you will need a Red Hat account). Just accept all the defaults. Remember the admin password you choose.
- Please download this repository. You can use Git or just the simple zip download.
- The demo is just a simple Maven project under the actionbazaar directory. You should be able to open it up in any Maven capable IDE, we used NetBeans.
- If desired setup JBoss EAP in your IDE; we did. At the current time, NetBeans does not directly support JBoss EAP 7 yet. You can use the NetBeans features for WildFly 10; it worked fine for us.
- Make sure JBoss EAP 7 is up and running before you run the tests.
- The tests in the Maven build are executed against a running JBoss EAP instance. You will need to configure [this file] (actionbazaar/src/test/resources/arquillian.xml) with the details of your JBoss EAP installation. You must set the admin password for JBoss EAP.
- If desired, you can deploy and run the application manually. We did this both via NetBeans and by using the plain Maven generated war file.
