Unable to execute JSFUnit test with maven2

[umeshsehgal]

Hi,

While looking around over the web for a good unit testing framework for JSF, I came across JSFUnit test framework and found it cool and useful. I tried with a sample example and was able to sucessfully launch it using browser but now as I was trying to integrate it with maven2 (using the existing example (jboss-jsfunit-examples-hellojsf-jsfunit-1.0.0.GA) available on JBoss repo), I ran in to following exceptions:

I had downloaded the JSFUnitTest example provided on jboss site and was trying to first run it up before trying to integrate it with my application.

Please suggest, what could be wrong?


Thanks,

This page tells about running JSFUnit tests from Maven :
http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-10977
Note that step 6 shows how to set the cactus.contextURL property, which seems to be your problem.

The JSFUnit project uses Maven and JSFUnit to test itself. So there are lots of examples if you want to check out the JSFUnit SVN.

There are other ways to run JSFUnit tests with Maven but I have found that the Cargo/Surefire solution works pretty well.

For more info on the cactus.contextURL property, see the Cactus web site. Particulary this page: http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/integration/manual/howto_config.html

Also, if you haven't discovered the main JSFUnit doc page, it's here: http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-10967

Hi Umesh,

as the error message says, you have to add a java argument "-Dcactus.contextURL=http://myhost/mywebapp".

The info in this document might help (though it applies to eclipse): http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-13427

Hi Stan,

Can you please confirm the command that we need to execute after performing all the steps listed on http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-10977 , as I had followed the same steps and executed "mvn install" and landed up in the error I posted about.


Thanks,
Umesh

[ssilvert]

mvn install is what you need. If you put any of the configuration under profiles then, of course, you need to activate those profiles.

If you set the System property under Surfire then you should not see that error. Perhaps you misspelled "cactus.contextURL"?

You could also try setting the System property in the constructor of the test just to make sure it is there.

Stan

Thanks Stan,

I just again looked at pom.xml closely and found that the system property I had was under profile tag but not under build tag, putting it there got rid of the missing cactus property problem, But now Its displaying the connect exception, I wonder if it's not able to launch the container, which it should be as I have cargo configuration inside pom.xml. The stack trace that I'm getting is:

[ssilvert]

You should see:

[INFO] [surefire:test]
[INFO] Tests are skipped.

Then later you should see this before your tests execute:

[INFO] [cargo:start {execution: start-container}]

Make sure you have this so that tests are not executed before the container starts. Surefire should only run during integration-test phase:

<plugin>
 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
 <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
 <configuration>
 <skip>true</skip>
 </configuration>

 <executions>
 <execution>
 <id>surefire-it</id>
 <phase>integration-test</phase>
 <goals>
 <goal>test</goal>
 </goals>
 <configuration>
 <skip>false</skip>
 <systemProperties>
 <property>
 <name>cactus.contextURL</name>
 <value>http://localhost:8080/${artifactId}</value>
 </property>
 </systemProperties>
 </configuration>
 </execution>
 </executions>
 </plugin>

Please let me know if that fixes your problem. It looks like I left that out of the documentation. I do things a little different in the JSFUnit tests because I have so many profiles.

Hi Stan,

Using the above configuration worked for me. Now I see as you mentioned,
first tests get skipped and then container starts and only after that tests get executed.

One more thing to point here that the maven integration doesn't seem to work with tomcat 6.0.18, I had to switch to 6.0.14 before I could see it successful.

Thanks for your help,
Umesh

[ssilvert]

Hmm. FWIW, I tried Tomcat 6.0.18 and it worked fine.
