Tech Tip #54 explained how to enable Arquillian for an existing Java EE project. In that tip, the tests were run against a locally installed WildFly server. Would the same adapter work if this WildFly instance was running on OpenShift ? No!

Because the security constraints and requirement of a PaaS, as opposed to a xlocalhost, are different. Lets take a look at what’s required to run our tests in javaee7-simple-sample against a WildFly instance hosted on OpenShift.

Lets get started!

As explained in Tech Tip #52, create a WildFly application on OpenShift as shown:

workspaces> rhc app-create mywildfly jboss-wildfly-8
Application Options
-------------------
Domain:     milestogo
Cartridges: jboss-wildfly-8
Gear Size:  default
Scaling:    no

Creating application 'mywildfly' ... Artifacts deployed: ./ROOT.war
done

  WildFly 8 administrator added.  Please make note of these credentials:

   Username: adminMYtMTDb
   Password: tq1K-QYLFgBD
   
   run 'rhc port-forward mywildfly' to access the web admin area on port 9990.

Waiting for your DNS name to be available ... done

Cloning into 'mywildfly'...
Warning: Permanently added the RSA host key for IP address '54.163.64.193' to the list of known hosts.

Your application 'mywildfly' is now available.

  URL:        http://mywildfly-milestogo.rhcloud.com/
  SSH to:     54699516ecb8d41cb8000016@mywildfly-milestogo.rhcloud.com
  Git remote: ssh://54699516ecb8d41cb8000016@mywildfly-milestogo.rhcloud.com/~/git/mywildfly.git/
  Cloned to:  /Users/arungupta/workspaces/mywildfly

Run 'rhc show-app mywildfly' for more details about your app.

Note down the ssh user name from the log. This is the part before @ in the value corresponding to SSH to.

Until FORGEPLUGINS-177 is resolved, we need to manually add maven profile and provide container configuration information in “arquillian.xml”. Add the following <profile> to “pom.xml”:

<profile>
    <id>arquillian-wildfly-openshift</id>
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.14.1</version>
                <configuration>
                    <systemPropertyVariables>
                        <arquillian.launch>arquillian-wildfly-openshift</arquillian.launch>
                    </systemPropertyVariables>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.container</groupId>
            <artifactId>arquillian-openshift</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.0.Final-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</profile>

This is using arquillian-openshift container and referring to arquillian-wildfly-openshift configuration that will be matched with the appropriate container in “arquillian.xml”. So this is how the updated “arquillian.xml” look:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<arquillian xmlns="http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian http://jboss.org/schema/arquillian/arquillian_1_0.xsd">
    <container qualifier="arquillian-wildfly-remote"/>
    <container qualifier="arquillian-wildfly-openshift">
        <configuration>
            <property name="namespace">milestogo</property>
            <property name="application">mywildfly</property>
            <property name="libraDomain">rhcloud.com</property>
            <property name="sshUserName">54699516ecb8d41cb8000016</property>
            <property name="login">arungupta@redhat.com</property>
            <property name="deploymentTimeoutInSeconds">300</property>
            <property name="disableStrictHostChecking">true</property> 
        </configuration>
    </container>
</arquillian>

Note the new <container> with the qualifier arquillian-wildfly-openshift. It provides information about where the server is located and some other configuration properties. The sshUserName property value should be the same from the WildFly instance created earlier.

That’s it, now you can run the test against the WildFly instance on OpenShift:
