[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (ARQ-574) Tomcat managed should not require an installed tomcat server

Tomcat managed should not require an installed tomcat server ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: ARQ-574 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-574 Project: Arquillian Issue Type: Enhancement Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Tomcat Containers Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet When starting up tomcat6-managed, the first SNAPSHOT, I get this: {code} Either CATALINA_HOME environment variable or catalinaHome property in Arquillian configuration must be set and point to a valid directory! null is not valid directory! {code} There are 2 problems with this: - it's a maintenance hurdle, especially on hudson build slaves - the build is not reproducible: the test results depends on the tomcat server version you've installed on your machine. Solution: Set the tomcat zip as a dependency (so it's in ~/.m2/repository) and unzip it to target and use that server installation.
