Problem running jsfunit with maven project

[kickmetoandy]

Hello,

i have some strange effects when running jsfunit via maven from the
command line. One question in advance: Where do i have to put my
testcases when using maven? I have set up my project just like
described in http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/JSFUnitWithMaven

THe project containing the jsfunit tests is called frontend-jsfunit.

Now back to the strage effects:

1. if i put my testcase in the directory
frontend-jsfunit/src/test/java/de
and run maven with "mvn clean integration-test" i get the following
exception because the testcase is not contained in the war:

2. if i put my testcase in the directory
frontend-jsfunit/src/main/java/de
(so the class will end up in the war file)
and run maven with "mvn clean integration-test" no tests are executed !

3. if i put the testcase in both directories
frontend-jsfunit/src/test/java/de and
frontend-jsfunit/src/main/java/de
the test is executed!

Obviously there is something that i miss. it looks like maven is only executing testcases
that are in the test directory (which is ok), however it also expects the testclass also
wihtin the war file. in order to write the testcase how do i properly configure
maven to execute the testcase properly ? obivously i do not want to
duplicate my testcase class and have it in 2 directories.

thanks in advance,
cheers,
andy

Hi,

The simplest way to fix this is to set the source and test directory to be the same.

<build>
 <sourceDirectory>src/test/java</sourceDirectory>
 <testSourceDirectory>src/test/java</testSourceDirectory>
</build>

This works well as long as you put your JSFUnit tests by themselves in a separate module and tell that module to depend on the WAR module where your application code lives.

Hi Stan,

with trying. Even though i do not yet know if i like it. anyway, it works and that is all i need. thanks.

Hi,

also changing output directory for test might help

 <build>
 <testOutputDirectory>${project.build.outputDirectory}</testOutputDirectory>
 ...
 </build>
