I have a web-application written in java. I would like to run integration tests

  • 0

I have a web-application written in java.

I would like to run integration tests on a embedded jetty server.

For that purpose I have a maven project (just for running integration tests).

For deploying I use cargo-maven2-plugin. But while jetty startup I receive following:

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.WebInfConfiguration cannot be cast to org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.Configuration

Full log:

    Specifying the version of the embedded Jetty used by Cargo is not supported (there is an old open issue about that, see CARGO-571). And indeed, if we look at the log, we see that it uses jetty-6.1.1rc1:

    2010-03-29 16:20:46.715::INFO:  jetty-6.1.1rc1
    

    So, first, remove the jetty dependency inside the plugin configuration which is actually the cause of the ClassCastException.

    But once the dependency removed, I faced another obscure commons-logging issue:

    Caused by: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: Invalid class loader hierarchy.  You have more than one version of 'org.apache.commons.logging.Log' visible, which is not allowed.
    

    And the cause seems to be this part:

                <execution>
                    <id>start-container</id>
                    <phase>pre-integration-test</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>start</goal>
                        <goal>deployer-deploy</goal>
                    </goals>
                </execution>
    

    To be honest, I don’t know why you call the deploy-deploy goal here. Without it, Cargo does deploy the declared deployable. So there is IMO no need to specify this goal. And if you remove it, there is no exception (and that the second “fix”).

    To summarize, the following configuration works:

    <profile>
      <id>container-cargo-jetty</id>
      <properties>
        <skip.test.phase>true</skip.test.phase>
      </properties>
      <build>

            <configuration>
              <wait>false</wait>
              <container>
                <containerId>jetty6x</containerId>
                <type>embedded</type>
