-------------------------------------

Hi all,

I believe this feature would help us a lot with reducing effort to maintain AS7 testsuite. 

For example for HornetQ testing we need to have very different configuration for HA topologies - dedicated/colocated. We have to test it in different modes of paging like BLOG/PAGE or AIO/NIO. Then if it's  clustered/non-clustered and there are more combinations we'd like to test. 

Restoring configuration file after each test brings us much more effort and is very error-prone. Suggested feature would save a lot of time.

We tried to precise requested feature for reloading configuration:

 - @RestoreASConfigAfterTest as described will be needed per test and per test class
    - per test - configuration will restore to state before the whole test class was started
 - we also need to have possibility to delete "tmp", "log", "data" and "deployments" directory per test and per test class. But those could be separate annotation for better flexibility.

Thanks,

Mirek

> Having a possibility to restore server configuration after the test is run, or similar principle, would be very cool.
> For example, there are some tests which change datasource config quite dramatically.
> And getting it back to the original state afterwards requires a lot of coding.
> So instead, the test would have {{@RestoreASConfigAfterTest}}
> and Arq would re-load a snapshot it made before the test was run.
