If I have a large web application already running in EAP 6.4.0 what's the best way to package and execute Warp tests?

Hello, I am working with a large web application with many moving parts. I want to be able to write Arquillian tests using Drone, Graphene and Warp. If the web app is already running in the container, how would I package a set of 1 or more tests and deploy them to the server such that the server side tests run in the appropriate context?

All of the examples that I have seen so far seem to expect that the tests will be bound to a "smallish" web app and the tests are packaged with the app.  I haven't been able to locate examples where tests are injected into an existing context. Could someone recommend some examples?

I would separate Drone/Graphene and Warp tests to start with.

UI tests are ran as client and you can simply just fetch your archive (either from the relative path or through mvn) and just deploy it.  On top you can try Arquillian Suite Extension to deploy only once. GitHub - ingwarsw/arquillian-suite-extension: Arquillian extension that will force single deployment for all tests

For Warp it's a bit of a different story, as if you want to use aforementioned suite extension you will have to add all the tests classes by hand. If you don't need to do it however, you can simply just deploy your bundle and run the tests.

Something as simple as:

ShrinkWrap.createFromZipFile(WebArchive.class, yourFile);
