[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (ARQ-236) Configure the Container lifecycle based on the Test events

Configure the Container lifecycle based on the Test events ---------------------------------------------------------- Key: ARQ-236 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-236 Project: Arquillian Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Base Implementation Reporter: Aslak Knutsen Assignee: Aslak Knutsen A user should be able to customize how he wants the Container to be controlled. The default behavior is: @BeforeSuite -> container.start() @BeforeClass -> container.deploy() @AfterClass -> container.undeploy() @AfterSuite -> container.stop() Other scenarios are: - Restart server pr test class @BeforeClass -> container.start() @BeforeClass -> container.deploy() @AfterClass -> container.undeploy() @AfterClass -> container.stop() - Redeploy pr test method @BeforeSuite -> container.start() @Before -> container.deploy() @After -> container.undeploy() @AfterSuite -> container.stop() - Restart pr test method @Before -> container.start() @Before -> container.deploy() @After -> container.undeploy() @After -> container.stop() This could be done by adding a Engine configuration option e.g.: engine/containerLifeCycle PrSuite|PrClass|PrMethod this option would map to different ContextAppenders in the background that does the setup/ordering.
