Arquillian Container for Atlassian Applications

[jollytoad]

Hi, firstly let me introduce myself, I'm a senior software engineer for Adaptavist - we provide consultancy around Atlassian products (eg. JIRA, Confluence, Bitbucket), and also produce Atlassian Marketplace add-ons.

For sometime we've been experimenting with Arquillian for testing our Atlassian plugins inside the actual application (JIRA, Confluence, etc), and have created our own Arquillian container extension for Atlassian apps. It will convert your ShrinkWrapped deployment archive into a fully fledged Atlassian plugin and then install it via the UPM or QuickReload (if available).

I feel its now reached a state where it is mature and stable enough to share with anyone that may be interested.

The source can be found here:

Adaptavist / atlassian-arquillian-containers — Bitbucket

And the maven artifacts are available from our external maven repo (we haven't had chance to publish to a central repo yet):

https://nexus.adaptavist.com/content/repositories/external/

An example of how to use it within a real plugin can be found here:

Adaptavist / reference-plugin — Bitbucket

Any feedback and/or contributions would be most welcome.

Thanks

Hi Mark,

first of all apologies for the late response. I've been on holidays last few weeks.

It's truly awesome to see that Arquillian is used for testing Atlassian plugins.  That's been always our idea to leverage Arquillian as a testing platform / middleware and that's an awesome showcase for that.

I would be thrilled to spread the word about your great contribution on Arquillian website. Do you think we can work on the blog post together?

Cheers,

Bartosz

Hi Bartosz,

Sure I'd be happy to collaborate, how do you want to do this?

I will draft something over the weekend and share github coordinates so we can collaborate directly there. WDYT?

Sounds good to me.
