Arquillian fails to detect change in org.jboss.arquillian.extension implementation

[paul.robinson]

Hello,

I've noticed that Arquillian is failing to detect a change in the implementation of the arquillian-transaction extension after the first test has been ran.To reproduce:

1. Boot a ''recent" jboss-as-7.2.0.Alpha1-SNAPSHOT

2. Run a test that uses arquillian-transaction-extension with the following dependency *missing*

	<dependency>
	<groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.extension</groupId>
	<artifactId>arquillian-transaction-jta</artifactId>
	<version>1.0.0.Final-SNAPSHOT</version>
	</dependency>

3. Observe that the transaction extension is not ran (either with a debugger or by adding an invalid @Transactional.manager, which should normally cause a failure).

4. Add the above dependency in, and re-run the test.

5. Observe that the transaction extension is still not ran.

6. Remove the "arquillian-service" deployment block from the standalone.xml

7 Reboot the AS and re-run the test.

8. Observe that the transaction extension *IS* ran.

A similar problem occurs if you try replacing the "arquillian-transaction-jta" with a different one. In this case the JTA one is always used until you remove the Arquillian deployment from the standalone.xml.

Is this a bug, expected behavior, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Paul.

How do you run this?

The arquillian-service should be undeployed inbetween runs.

Aslak,

I'm using the remote container.

Cheers

No, i mean do you ru nit from IDE or Maven?

Maven pre 2.09 if I remember correctly has a bug that prevents calling TestResultFinished (which triggeres the event Arquillian is listning to to do the shutdown.)

Then the deployed service is not undeployed, and the old version will be available next time you run.

Aslak,

I'm running maven from the command line. I've noticed for some time (~June 2012) that the arquillian-service deployment block hangs around after running a remote test.

FYI:

mvn -version
Apache Maven 3.0.3 (r1075438; 2011-02-28 17:31:09+0000)
Maven home: /usr/share/maven
Java version: 1.6.0_37, vendor: Apple Inc.
Java home: /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home
Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: MacRoman
OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.8.2", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"

Also, here's the deployment block that hangs around:

<deployments>
  <deployment name="arquillian-service" runtime-name="arquillian-service" enabled="true">
    <content sha1="913888051416fd791d4dfdb2297767229cd1584f"/>
  </deployment>
</deployments>

Paul.

[aslak]

which version of the maven surefire plugin are you using?

[paul.robinson]

I was using the default. However, when i specify the latest version (2.12.4) the arquillian service *is* undeployed when the tests completes. I can also confirm that this solves the original issue of not being able to switch Transaction Extension implementations.

Thanks!

Paul.
