How to set up Arquillian for non-Maven projects?

[gorter]

I need to use Arquillian to test a large number of libraries that are already written, but that are not Maven projects. I am using Eclipse Helios, and I have gotten the Arquillian projects into Eclipse but I am not able to run any tests as of now. When I try to run the simple TemperatureConverter test from the examples, I get no compile/build errors, but I do get the following error:

Jan 10, 2011 3:43:07 PM org.jboss.arquillian.impl.XmlConfigurationBuilder loadArquillianConfiguration

INFO: building configuration from XML file: arquillian.xml

Jan 10, 2011 3:43:07 PM org.jboss.arquillian.impl.XmlConfigurationBuilder matchContainerConfiguration

WARNING: No container configuration found for URI: java:urn:org.jboss.arquillian.impl

I am guessing that I am gettting this error because I have not done enough setup, but I am not sure what I should all change because the TemperatureConverter and TemperatureConverterTest classes are in an Eclipse Plug-in Project. There is no pom.xml file, so where do I setup the profiles which specify which container will be used?

I have JBoss 6.0 running on my machine, and I am using JUnit in Eclipse.

I have attached the classes.

Thanks,

Nathan

Thanks, I took a look at that article and the examples it referenced, and they helped a lot and I am close, but not quite there yet. I am running into the following error while trying to run build.xml:

I have JBoss 6.0.0.Final running, and I know it is doing something because I get different errors if I try to run build.xml if the server is stopped. Here is my ivy.xml file, in case I have some problems with dependencies, verisons, etc.:

Many of those last dependencies I added at the end because I was getting ClassNotFoundExceptions for them.

If you look at the Maven example here, you should see the correct dependencies needed to run it:

http://docs.jboss.org/arquillian/reference/snapshot/en-US/html_single/#container.jbossas-remote-6

Which version of ivy do you use? I remember someone mentioning some issues in a previous ivy v. not supporting the import scope introduced in the latest maven versions.

Do you have a jndi.properties file on classpath as well?

I have finally gotten Arquillian running with JBoss/Ant! It was a little confusing because the examples found at https://github.com/mojavelinux/arquillian-showcase/tree/master/cdi/ called for the following dependencies:

<dependency org="org.jboss.arquillian.container" name="arquillian-jbossas-remote-6" rev="1.0.0.Alpha4" conf="test-jbossas-remote->default(*)"/>

<dependency org="org.jboss.jbossas" name="jboss-as-server" m:classifier="client" rev="6.0.0.Final" conf="test-jbossas-remote->default(*)" transitive="false"/>

<dependency org="org.jboss.jbossas" name="jboss-as-profileservice" m:classifier="client" rev="6.0.0.Final" conf="test-jbossas-remote->default(*)"/>

while the reference guide http://docs.jboss.org/arquillian/reference/snapshot/en-US/html_single/#container.jbossas-remote-6 seems to call for the following dependencies:

<dependency org="org.jboss.arquillian.container" name="arquillian-jboss-remote-6" rev="1.0.0.Alpha4" />

<dependency org="org.jboss.jbossas" name="jboss-as-client" rev="6.0.0.Final" />

I only got the tests running with the first set of dependencies, not the second. Just for clarification, why are there different dependencies listed and should they both work?

This one might also be of help: Integration testing using Arquillian without Maven

It describes how to set up a testing environment without using Maven and has direct links to all the required artifacts for the current alpha 4 release.
