Accessing container's resources

[iapazmino]

Hello,

Is there a way to access the containers resources? Let's say I need to check my log was written correctly. Can I make something like

@Container

private Container container;

...

@Test

public void testLog() {

assertNotNull(container.getLog("custom.log"));

}

Not sure what you mean by Containers Resources, but.. you can reach anything on the Contianer side..

Making your own TestEnricher that expose a Container abstraction is fully possible.

Make a implementation of org.jboss.arquillian.spi.TestEnricher

public class ContainerEnricher implements TestEnricher {
  public void enrich(Context context, Object testInstance)
  {
    // pesudo
    for each testInstance.getClass().getDeclaredFields()
      field.isAnnotationPresent(Container.class)
        field.set(testInstance, new MyContainerAbstraction())
  }
}

Make a implementation of org.jboss.arquillian.spi.AuxiliaryArchiveAppender to package the TestEnricher

public class ContainerPackager implement AuxiliaryArchiveAppener
{
  public Archive<?> createAuxiliaryArchive()
  {
    return ShrinkWrap.create(JavaArchive.class, "container-enricher.jar")
                .addClass(ContainerEnricher.class)
                .addServiceProvider(TestEnricher.class, ContainerEnricher.class);
  }
}

Make a file in META-INF/services/org.jboss.arquillian.spi.AuxiliaryArchiveAppender that contain the fully qualified name for your ContainerPackager and you should be good to go.

Thanks, you caught the spirit of the question. What I meant exactly is for instance I'm making an EJB interceptor to log in a separate log file some operations made by a session bean. So, in order to test it's working I need a way to acces from the test class the container's log service. Mmm sure resource is not what I mean to say, but maybe service would suit better. Anyway, I haven't found the way to access the currently running DeployableContainer instance from my enricher, but I'll open another post in that matter.
