The build system has been updated so that it generates and controls it's own profile in an app server. By default this will use the contents of jbossesb-server-base.zip to create the server profile although the intention is to allow this to be overridden by specifying different server home/config properties (still to be finished). The server instance will also include the ftp-server as a default, provided that no the ftp server properties have been configured. The important targets within the scripts are the following product/build.xml targets - start-server This target creates and executes a fresh profile for running the tests. This profile is spawned in the background and will not be terminated if called directly. The server profile consists of the standard AS profile plus the optional ftp server. There are no ESB specific components deployed. - stop-server This target terminates an already running profile. - integration This target now starts the server, runs the integration and then terminates the server. The server should always be terminated when this target completes. - ci-integration This target extends the previous one to include the generation of the build artifacts ant reports. product/build.xml targets - start-server This target creates and executes a fresh profile for running the tests. This profile is spawned in the background and will not be terminated if called directly. The server profile consists of the standard AS profile, the optional ftp server and the ESB artifacts. The ESB artifacts are installed using the script from the product/install directory and should therefore be consistent with a fresh install from the distribution. - stop-server This target terminates an already running profile. - ci-test This target now starts the server, runs the integration tests and then terminates the server. The server should always be terminated when this target completes. The top level integration-build.xml has also been simplified and now wraps product/ci-integration and qa/ci-test. You can run the complete CI test from here or product/qa sections using the above targets. If you are running an individual test then you can call the appropriate 'start-server' target to create and execute the server. Individual tests should still work, if they do not then please let me know. There were also a couple of minor changes in the codebase to allow this to be done. - any tests deploying infrastructure artifacts (ftp-server.sar or jbossesb.sar) have had these sections removed. - hardcoded FTP configuration have been removed. If you find any problems with this please let me know.
