The jBPM test configuration has problem with database setup ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-1070 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-1070 Project: JBoss jBPM Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: jBPM 3.2.2 Reporter: Jiri Pechanec Fix For: jBPM 3.3.2 GA The jBPM test process expects hiberante.properties file to be placed in defined configuration directory. jBPM config file JBPM.3/jpdl/jar/src/test/config/jbpm.cfg.xml orders to use hibernate.properties file (<string name="resource.hibernate.properties" value="hibernate.properties" />). But the JBPM.3/jpdl/jar/src/test/java/org/jbpm/db/AbstractDbTestCase.java uses config file less JBPM.3/jpdl/jar/src/test/java/org/jbpm/jbpm.test.cfg.xml and the line mentioned above is missing. Thus the configuration is read from standard hibernate.cfg.xml. Solution Either add the missing line to jbpm.test.cfg.xml or change AbstractDbTestCase.java to use central config file in config directory. The second one is preferred.
