Arquillian tests on a WildFly instance hosted on OpenShift (Tech Tip #55)

Tech Tip #54 explained how to enable Arquillian for an existing Java EE project. In that tip, the tests were run against a locally installed WildFly server. Would the same adapter work if this WildFly instance was running on OpenShift ? No!

Because the security constraints and requirement of a PaaS, as opposed to a localhost, are different. Lets take a look at what’s required to run our tests in javaee7-continuous-delivery on a WildFly instance hosted on OpenShift.

Lets get started!

  1. As explained in Tech Tip #52, create a WildFly application on OpenShift as shown:

    Note down the ssh user name from the log. This is the part before @ in the value corresponding to SSH to.
  2. Until FORGEPLUGINS-177 is resolved, we need to manually add maven profile and provide container configuration information in “arquillian.xml”. Add the following <profile> to “pom.xml”:

    This is using arquillian-openshift container and referring to arquillian-wildfly-openshift configuration that will be matched with the appropriate container in “arquillian.xml”.

    So this is how the updated “arquillian.xml” look:

    Note the new <container> with the qualifier arquillian-wildfly-openshift. It provides information about where the server is located and some other configuration properties. The sshUserName property value should be the same from the WildFly instance created earlier.

  3. That’s it, now you can run the test against the WildFly instance on OpenShift:
