Arquillian Container JBoss AS 1.0.0.CR3 Released

The Arquillian team is proud to announce the 1.0.0.CR3 release of the Arquillian Container JBoss AS component!

Some of the highlights in this release

JavaHome configuration option now default to the Arquillian running JVM

Add configuration support for portSet to JBoss AS 5.1/6 Managed containers

arquillian.xml
<arquillian xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xmlns="http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian"
  xsi:schemaLocation="
      http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian
      http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian/arquillian_1_0.xsd">

  <container qualifier="jboss">
    <property name="portSet">ports-01</property>
  </container>

</arquillian>

Setting the portSet will automatically set the http and rmi ports to be use based on the pre defined sets in the JBoss AS configuration.

Add configuration support for partition to JBoss AS 4.2/5.1/6 Managed containers

arquillian.xml
<arquillian xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xmlns="http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian"
  xsi:schemaLocation="
      http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian
      http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian/arquillian_1_0.xsd">

  <group qualifier="cluster">
    <container qualifier="jboss-1">
      <property name="partition">X-1</property>
    </container>
    <container qualifier="jboss-2">
      <property name="partition">X-1</property>
    </container>
  </group>

</arquillian>

Using the same partition id on a group of containers defined in arquillian.xml will allow them to form a cluster.

Save time! Drastically trim the dependency graph when testing on JBoss AS 6

Great news! We’ve drastically cut down the number of dependencies that Maven has to download in order to use the JBoss AS 6 remote container adapter Arquillian. You no longer have to download Hibernate just to connect to a remote or managed (standalone) JBoss AS instance ~:)

To cut to the chase, replace this dependency:

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.jboss.jbossas</groupId>
   <artifactId>jboss-as-client</artifactId>
   <version>6.0.0.Final</version>
   <type>pom</type>
</dependency>

with this one:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.jboss.jbossas</groupId>
  <artifactId>jboss-as-profileservice-client</artifactId>
  <version>6.0.0.Final</version>
  <type>pom</type>
</dependency>

The number of dependencies drops from 318 to just 28! That should save you a heaps of time. Now, Maven doesn’t have download these extra dependenices on the first run, and doesn’t have to resolve the graph on subsequent invocations. You also cut out this unresolved pom warning:

[WARNING] The POM for ws-commons:policy:jar:1.0 is invalid, transitive dependencies
(if any) will not be available, enable debug logging for more details

To make a long story short, the JBoss AS team publishes a stack POM (i.e., BOM) to identify all the dependencies used in JBoss AS. The client POM is a little too well linked and ends up depending on JBoss AS itself somewhere down the line. As you can imagine, this pulls in a lot of transitive dependencies.

The profile service client POM is a trimmed down version that grabs only the libraries needed for communicating with a remote (standalone) JBoss AS instance using the DeploymentManager, which is accessed via the ProfileService.

Cut the internet a break and update your POM today ~:)
