How to run Arquillian in jenkins

[kwintesencja]

Hi,

its basically the same as running locally althought you may concern with 1, where is the container and 2 where functional tests will run:

for 1 i usually use a managed container which is downloaded to target folder via maven during build, here is a wildfly example:

<profile>

            <id>wildfly-managed</id>

            <properties>

                <arquillian.serverHome>${project.build.directory}/wildfly-8.1.0.Final</arquillian.serverHome>

            </properties>

            <dependencies>

                <dependency>

                    <groupId>org.wildfly</groupId>

                    <artifactId>wildfly-arquillian-container-managed</artifactId>

                    <version>8.1.0.Final</version>

                    <scope>test</scope>

                </dependency>

            </dependencies>

            <build>

                <plugins>

                    <plugin>

                        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

                        <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>

                        <executions>

                            <execution>

                                <id>unpack</id>

                                <phase>process-test-classes</phase>

                                <goals>

                                    <goal>unpack</goal>

                                </goals>

                                <configuration>

                                    <artifactItems>

                                        <artifactItem>

                                            <groupId>org.wildfly</groupId>

                                            <artifactId>wildfly-dist</artifactId>

                                            <version>8.1.0.Final</version>

                                            <type>zip</type>

                                            <overWrite>false</overWrite>

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

                                        </artifactItem>

                                    </artifactItems>

                                </configuration>

                            </execution>

                        </executions>

                    </plugin>

                    <plugin>

                        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

                        <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>

                        <version>2.16</version>

                        <configuration>

                            <systemPropertyVariables>

                                <arquillian.launch>wildfly-managed</arquillian.launch>

                            </systemPropertyVariables>

                            <environmentVariables>

                                <JBOSS_HOME>${arquillian.serverHome}</JBOSS_HOME>

                            </environmentVariables>

                        </configuration>

                    </plugin>

                </plugins>

            </build>

        </profile>

basically the tests you run on top of a fresh wildfly located at target folder.

Another option is to have the server instalation in the same machine where jenkins runs and point JBOSS_HOME to it.

for 2 if your CI doesnt have graphic support you may use a remote selenium grid and point arquillian tests to it via arquillian.xml:

<extension qualifier="webdriver">

        <property name="browser">${arquillian.browser}</property>

<!--         <property name="dimensions">1280x1024</property>  -->

         <property name="remote">true</property>

        <property name="remoteAddress">ip-to-selenium-grid:1044/wd/hub</property>

    </extension>

or if you don't want to manage selenium grid can try a headless browser like phantomjs:

<extension qualifier="webdriver">

        <property name="browser">phantomjs</property>

    </extension>

i hope it helps
