Info
titleAre you using ANT or Maven2/Maven3Ant or Maven 3?

If you are relying on ANT or Maven2/Maven3 Ant or Maven 3 for your build, it is probably easier for you to use the associated tasks/plugin directly:

  • The documentation for the CARGO ANT our Ant tasks can be found here: Ant support.
  • The documentation for the CARGO Maven2/Maven3 our Maven 3 plugin can be found here: Maven 3 Plugin.

Note that the Maven2/Maven3 plugin also has archetypes you can directly use as a skeleton for integration.

Example

...

that

...

Code Block
javajavaimport junit.extensions.TestSetup; import junit.framework.Test; [...] public class CargoTestSetup extends TestSetup { InstalledLocalContainer container; public CargoTestSetup(Test test) { super(test); } protected void setUp() throws Exception { // (1) Optional step to install

the

container from a URL pointing to its distribution Installer installer = new ZipURLInstaller( new URL("https://repo.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/tomcat/tomcat/7.0.68/tomcat-7.0.68.zip")); installer.install(); // (2) Create the Cargo Container instance wrapping our physical container LocalConfiguration configuration = (LocalConfiguration) new DefaultConfigurationFactory().createConfiguration( "tomcat7x", ContainerType.INSTALLED, ConfigurationType.STANDALONE); InstalledLocalContainer container = (InstalledLocalContainer) new DefaultContainerFactory().createContainer( "tomcat7x", ContainerType.INSTALLED, configuration); container.setHome(installer.getHome()); // (3) Statically deploy some WAR (optional) configuration.addDeployable(new WAR("cargo.war")); // (4) Start the container container.start(); } protected void tearDown() throws Exception { // (6) Stop the container container.stop(); } }

Then write your test case. For example:

...

import junit.framework.TestCase;
import junit.framework.Test;
import junit.framework.TestSuite;
[...]

public class MyTest extends TestCase
{
    public static Test suite()
    {
        TestSuite suite = new TestSuite(MyTest.class);
        return new CargoTestSetup(suite);
    }

    public void testSomething()
    {
        // (5) Perform any test you wish here
        [...]
    }
}

Functional Testing with Cargo

    Plugin.

    Note that the Maven2/Maven3 plugin also has archetypes you can directly use as a skeleton for integration.

    Example

    The best is to create a JUnit TestSetup extension so that you start and stop your container once for the whole test suite. For example:

    ...

    Code Block
    java
    java
    import junit.framework.TestCase;
    import junit.framework.Test;
    import junit.framework.TestSuite;
    [...]
    
    public class MyTest extends TestCase
    {
        public static Test suite()
        {
            TestSuite suite = new TestSuite(MyTest.class);
            return new CargoTestSetup(suite);
        }
    
        public void testSomething()
        {
            // (5) Perform any test you wish here
            [...]
        }
    }
