The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 1.0.0.Alpha2 release of the Arquillian Portal Extension component!

The Portal extension for Arquillian brings testing into the world of Portlets!

Some of the highlights in this release

URL injection of portlets by name. @PortalURL now supports defining the names of the portlets that you want rendered on the page of the injected URL. You can either specify a single portlet name, multiple, or leave it empty and it will load all portlets defined within portlets.xml onto the page. Injecting a URL of a portlet page with the MyPortlet portlet present is done by:

@ArquillianResource
@PortalURL("MyPortlet")
URL portletPage;

Annotation for marking portlet tests. @PortalTest now represents a marker on a test class that signifies to Portal extension implementations that a portlet test is being invoked. This enables for augmenting the test deployment with whatever information is needed for particular portlet containers to enable a portlet to be tested. It has the added benefit of decoupling a test needing to inject a @PortalURL if the tests don’t require a URL to the portlet page.

Currently there are two implementations of this extension for use with Pluto and GateIn portal containers.

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

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

The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 1.0.0.CR4 release of the Arquillian Tomcat Container component!

Some of the highlights in this release

Support for nice multiline/pretty formatting of JVM-argument configuration. Additionally, you can use quotes to provide values containing spaces.

<property name="javaVmArguments">
  -Xms512m -Xmx512m
  -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
  "-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=/path/to your/keystore"
</property>

Embedded Tomcat 7 is now capable of protected WAR deployment (this is usual in typical standalone server), thus some standard deployment features are now available even for embedded use, e.g.:

• Deployment of an archive named “ROOT.war” to the default context “/”
• Proper processing of “META-INF/context.xml” if present in the WAR.
