Hi,<br>
<br>
The Seam Cron module has many providers and I'd like to test each<br>
provider by reusing the same test suite (Arquillian), but just having a<br>
different provider on the classpath . Kind of TCK style I think.<br>
<br>
So I would have several provider projects, plus a tck project containing<br>
all the common test classes. I guess then each provider project would<br>
depend on the tck (scope: test) so that the tck tests, plus any of its<br>
own unit tests are all run during that provider's test phase.<br>
<br>
My concerns with this so far are:<br>
<br>
1. I think I will need a test suite with the test classes in<br>
src/main/java (rather than src/test/java) so that the provider can get<br>
those classes onto its own classpath during testing. Will Arquillian<br>
work OK like that (ie: does it have maven integration which specifically<br>
looks under src/test/java only)?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>No, there's nothing in there that I'm aware of that would prohibit this approach.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
2. The classes in the test suite have a hard-coded @Deployment, and I'm<br>
not sure how I'd go about customising that place a different provider<br>
class on the classpath. I don't want to have to force my providers to<br>
extend every test case just to customise the deployment.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>You're @Deployment should be in the test class, but that doesn't stop you from having a base method that setup everything and just returns an archive you can add to, or even merge(...) in your @Deployement method.</div>

3. Am I going about this all wrong?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Sounds like a good way to accomplish the task to me.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
Cheers for any advice you can give me.<br>
