Hi,
The Seam Cron module has many providers and I'd like to test each
provider by reusing the same test suite (Arquillian), but just having a
different provider on the classpath . Kind of TCK style I think.
So I would have several provider projects, plus a tck project containing
all the common test classes. I guess then each provider project would
depend on the tck (scope: test) so that the tck tests, plus any of its
own unit tests are all run during that provider's test phase.
My concerns with this so far are:
1. I think I will need a test suite with the test classes in
src/main/java (rather than src/test/java) so that the provider can get
those classes onto its own classpath during testing. Will Arquillian
work OK like that (ie: does it have maven integration which specifically
looks under src/test/java only)?
2. The classes in the test suite have a hard-coded @Deployment, and I'm
not sure how I'd go about customising that place a different provider
class on the classpath. I don't want to have to force my providers to
extend every test case just to customise the deployment.
3. Am I going about this all wrong?
Cheers for any advice you can give me.
