The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 1.9.0 release of the Arquillian Cube Extension component!

New version of Arquillian Cube 1.9.0 has been released with new features and bug fixes.

What’s new

Add support for network aliases

Add support for network aliases in docker compose format docker-compose aliases.

Disable OpenShift ImageStream detection by default

New flag has been added to enable/disable the detection of OpenShift Image Streams. These files must be located at target directory and their names should end with -is.yml.

By default this detection is disabled hence these files are not processed. If you want to enable you need to set OpenShift configuration parameter enableImageStreamDetection to true.

You can read more about this parameter at Arquillian Cube documentation

Many thanks to Georg Wolf, Jens and Ladislav Thon for their help.

What is Arquillian Cube Extension?

With Arquillian Cube you can control the lifecycle of Docker images as part of the test lifecyle, either automatically or manually. This gives you the chance to scale up from a integration/functional test level all the way up to the system test level.

The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 0.0.1 release of the Smart Testing component!

First release of Smart Testing is here!

It all started as a Google Summer of Code project last year with great ground work of our student Dimcho Karpachev.

Flash forward to this summer, after 222 commits, 69 pull requests merged and insane amount of CI builds we are super excited to announce a new addition to Arquillian Universe we’ve been working so vigorously on.

This time it’s not a new extension to Arquillian Testing Platform, but a brand new tool which we hope will bring a breath of fresh air into your builds, let it be on your local machine or the CI server.

You probably know it best – you write some code and tests, run the build, wait few minutes to only see at the later stage that your changes are breaking it. Of course you can go and grab a coffee, but if you commit early and often that might mean caffeine overdose in a very short time. Running tests before pushing is a good practice, but if it takes too long it simply slows you down.

Moreover having long lasting builds on your CI server makes your CI/CD process not really that continuous and leads to Pull Requests piling up. Bringing new features to production with confidence should be seamless. And for this we need to have faster feedback loops.

Smart Testing is a tool that speeds up the test running phase by reordering test execution plan to increase a probability of fail-fast execution and thus give you faster feedback about your project’s health.

That’s why we created this cure for you!

Highlights of this release

With this release we provide following strategies which you can use to optimize your build execution:

• new – gives higher priority to newly added tests
• changed – gives higher priority to changed tests (e.g. new test methods or refactorings of components under tests which imply changes in the tests)
• affected – based on changes in your business logic, gives higher priority to the tests which are exercising them
• failed – gives higher priority to the tests which failed in the previous (local) build

In addition you can either decide to run the whole test suite (ordering mode) or only those tests which fall into the selected categories (selecting, which is also a default mode).

new, changed and affected rely on SCM information. For this release we only support Git.

How to get started

If you are using Maven 3.3.x or newer (and you definitely should!) adding Smart Testing to your build is very easy. Create a file .mvn/extensions.xml in the root of project
with the following content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<extensions>
  <extension>
    <groupId>org.arquillian.smart.testing</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-lifecycle-extension</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.1</version>
  </extension>
</extensions>

and you are all set!

Executing the build with Smart Testing enabled is as simple as adding one system property with strategies of your choice:

$ mvn clean verify -Dsmart.testing=new,changed,affected

This will execute the build running only those tests which are falling into selected categories, based on your local changes.

For the CI environment, such as Jenkins, you can pass commit hashes using environment variables. For example:
$ mvn verify -Dsmart.testing=affected -Dscm.range.head=GIT_COMMIT -Dscm.range.tail=GIT_PREVIOUS_COMMIT
This will optimize tests based on the changes between the current commit and the one against which the previous build was run.

For more details head over to our documentation backed by awesome Asciidoctor!

We are very excited about Smart Testing but we need you to help us make it even more awesome. We spent tremendous amount of effort building it with the developer experience in mind, but without the community feedback we can only get that far. So give it a try today and tell us what you think! Maven is a first stop for us. Stay tuned! There’s more to come!

Thanks to the whole team for making it happen! You are real heroes!

Also big kudos to Infinitest team for the inspiration! Give it a spin if you are Eclipse or IDEA user.

The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 2.4.2 release of the Arquillian Drone Extension component!

Significant changes and additions:

Upgraded Selenium to 3.5.3

Added ability to explicitly specify the target architecture of the IE web-driver binary. To do it, use the property ieDriverArch with any of the two possible values: Win32 and x64. If the property is not specified then the architecture is resolved from the host OS. Big thanks to Václav Muzikář for implementing it.

What is Arquillian?

Arquillian is open source software that empowers you to test JVM-based applications more effectively. Created to defend the software galaxy from bugs, Arquillian brings your test to the runtime so you can focus on testing your application's behavior rather than managing the runtime. Using Arquillian, you can develop a comprehensive suite of tests from the convenience of your IDE and run them in any IDE, build tool or continuous integration environment.
