- 3. Testing, J2EE and Java EE • Testing not addressed well by J2EE • This has changed enormously with Java EE and Arquillian • Java EE provides a number of enabling features • Arquillian takes full advantage of these features • Not the only solution, but best-of-breed • Developer (unit and integration) testing focus for this talk • Arquillian can also help with performance, system, etc testing • Arquillian excels at integration/regression testing Copyright © 2015 CapTech Ventures, Inc. All rights reserved.
- 4. Testing Servlet • Traditional problem is bootstrapping containers from tests • Arquillian helps by coordinating container life-cycle • Tests close to production environments • Also helps isolate tests • JAX-RS 2 client API comes in very handy • Java SE 9 may have a better HTTP client API • HtmlUnit, HttpUnit non-standard alternatives Copyright © 2015 CapTech Ventures, Inc. All rights reserved.

- 6. Testing JSF • Same general concept as Servlet testing • Warp ideal for complete JSF testing • Client and server-side tests from Arquillian • Drone/Selenium, Graphene often sufficient • Just the client side Copyright © 2015 CapTech Ventures, Inc. All rights reserved.

- 8. Testing CDI/EJB 3 • EJB 3 significantly more testable as it is merely POJOs • CDI increases Java EE component model level testability by leaps and bounds • Embedded containers, generic POJO dependency injection, @Alternative, XML deployment descriptors, interceptors major enablers • Arquillian test enrichment through injection, scoping • Both mock object based unit testing as well as integration testing is possible • Likely sufficient to stick with integration testing using close to real runtime environments Copyright © 2015 CapTech Ventures, Inc. All rights reserved.
- 9. Testing JPA • CDI, EJB 3 and Arquillian works towards JPA testing • Just testing JPA code is possible too but likely unnecessary • JPA 2.1 data loading, schema generation • Defining data sources within the application • persistence.xml, orm.xml XML overrides • Embedded databases like Java DB, Derby, HSQL • DBUnit integration for better data consistency • Tests can use transactions in Arquillian Copyright © 2015 CapTech Ventures, Inc.

- 11. Testing JAX-RS, WebSocket (and JAX-WS) • Same general concept as Servlet testing • You can use JAX-RS, WebSocket and JAX-WS client APIs with Arquillian • For more complex cases consider UI based testing tools (e.g. soapUI for REST and SOAP) • JUnit integration possible Copyright © 2015 CapTech Ventures, Inc.
