[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (ARQ-152) Support multiple container configurations for same container type

[ https://jira.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-152?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.syst... ] Dan Allen commented on ARQ-152: ------------------------------- It would be pretty simple to add the arquillian.container.config (other options include: arquillian.container.configuration, arquillian.container.qualifier) property and consult it when deciding which configuration of the target container to select. In Eclipse, you would have to custom the run configuration of the JUnit/TestNG test and add a VM argument under the Arguments tab: -Darquillian.container.config=staging Setting the property from the commandline when using Maven is complicated by the debacle around SUREFIRE-121 (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-121). At the moment, you have to setup a pass-through in the surefire plugin configuration: <configuration> <systemProperties> <property> <name>arquillian.container.config</name> <value>${arquillian.container.config}</value> </property> </systemProperties> </configuration> Then you can use it from the commandline using the -D switch. mvn test -Darquillian.container.config=staging -Pjbossas-remote-6 I don't think that the configuration name should be a universal id. It's really just a qualifier. You may use the same qualifier again with a different container. <jboss:container qualifier="qa1"> ... </jboss:container> <jboss:container qualifier="qa2"> ... </jboss:container> <glassfish:container qualifier="qa1"> ... </glassfish:container> <glassfish:container qualifier="qa2"> ... </glassfish:container> (Selecting which container implementation to use in a test run is currently controlled by the classpath, but in the future may be controlled by yet another property). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
