The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 2.0.0-beta-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.

The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 1.0.0.Beta1 release of the Arquillian Portal Extension component!

Highlighted Features

Shrinkwrap Archive type for portlets

We now have PortletArchive for creating Shrinkwrap archives for portlets. (read more)

Helpers for creating portlet.xml

Within PortletArchive there are some simple helpers for creating the contents of portlet.xml. (read more)

Shrinkwrap Archive type for portlets

We can now use PortletArchive instead of WebArchive when we’re creating micro deployments for testing a portlet. In it includes methods for setting the content of portlet.xml without needing to specify the path, in a similar manner that WebArchive provides setWebXML() methods.

Helpers for creating portlet.xml

PortletArchive also adds some nice helpers for creating GenericPortlet or GenericFacesPortlet portlet definitions within portlet.xml. A GenericPortlet can be added to portlet.xml by:

Shrinkwrap.create(PortletArchive.class)
	.createSimplePortlet(MyPortletClass.class);

And adding a portlet for JSF is:

Shrinkwrap.create(PortletArchive.class)
	.createFacesPortlet("portletName", "Portlet Title", "index.xhtml");

For examples on how to use these extensions with their respective portal containers, you can take a look at the testsuite of Portlet Bridge.

We look forward to hearing your feedback about this release in the community forums!
