The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 1.0.0.CR6 release of the Arquillian Core component!

Some of the highlights in this release

Container Control modes – Containers can now be configured to have multiple different control modes using the new mode attribute in arquillian.xml

<container qualifier="X" mode="suite|class|manual" />

• suite (default)
  As you know it from before, container will be started and stopped as part of the test suite.

• class
  The container will be started and stopped for each TestClass

• manual
  Control the lifecycle by injecting @ArquillianResource ContainerController and calling cc.start|stop|kill from within your TestMethods. In manual mode, the container will be automatically stopped in @AfterClass.

@ArquillianResource ContainerController controller;

@Test
public void shouldBeAbleTo() throws Exception
{
  // do stuff
  controller.start("qualifier");

  // do stuff
  controller.kill("qualifier");

  controller.start("qualifier", new Config("some-new-container-option", "value"));
  // do stuff
}

Ordering of JUnit TestMethods – As pr the JVM specification, the order of Methods in a Class are not tied to the order they are written in the source file. You can now annotated your TestMethods with @InSequence(n) to run them in a defined order.

Support for TestNG >= 6.3

The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 1.1.0-alpha-1 release of the ShrinkWrap Resolver component!

What is ShrinkWrap Resolver?

The ShrinkWrap Resolvers project provides a Java API to obtain artifacts from a repository system. This is handy to include third party libraries available in any Maven repository in your test archive. ShrinkWrap Resolvers additionally allow you to reuse all the configuration you've already specified in the Maven build file, making packaging of an application archive much easier job.
