Environment

• Apache Maven 3.1.1
• Jenkins 1.551
• Eclipse Kepler SR1
• Oracle JDK7u51
• PostgreSQL 9.2.4
• OS X 10.9.2

Requirement

• I'm searching an appropriate way to define environment specific configuration.
• I don't want to create separate files for each environment.
• I don't want to define environment specific information on pom.xml.

Where to define?

• There are some candidates for achieve it with Maven.
  • Maven Properties
    • Maven can reference it as ${name}.
  • Java System Properties
    • Maven can reference it as ${name}.
  • Environment Variables
    • Maven can reference it as ${env.name}.

Maven Properties

• User-local properties are can be defined on ~/.m2/settings.xml
• It's easy to define on Jenkins jobs through configuration of MAVEN_OPTS.
  • We can specify it like: “-Dname=value”
• We have to take care on Eclipse to make sure select a profile explicitly.
  • activeByDefault won't work on some cases[8].
• I go with this way at this time.

Java System Properties

• We need to define it through arguments of java command.
• It's annoying to define on Eclipse.
  • I can't found any way on define globally for Run Configuration.
  • Thus, I have to configure it for each programs. It's pretty annoying.
• It's easy to define it on Jenkins jobs through configuration of MAVEN_OPTS.
  • We can specify it like: “-Dname=value”

Environment Variables

• We need to define it through platform-specific way.
• But any programs can reference it through cross-platform way.
• I guess it's more cross-platform way than Java System Properties.
• We need a plugin[2] for Jenkins to define environment variables in jobs.
• I guess it's not bad to achieve it.
• But it's might not a good idea to storing security informations such as password.

Sample

• This sample executes simple SQL which acquires the name of connected database.
• Assume PostgreSQL is running at localhost:5432 and database named “kyle”, “testdb”, “testdb001” are exists.

~/.m2/settings.xml

• This defines variables of the development environment with Eclipse.

Arquillian

Pros

• It enables us to testing of all kind of beans or methods.
  • CDI Managed Beans
  • EJBs that have only no interface view or local interface
  • Methods what returns/receives object which not serializable
  • everything
• There are many various ways of manipulating testing package.
  • e.g. adding data source definition or persistence descriptor (persistence.xml) for testing purpose is easy because of useful ShrinkWrap.
• We can keep the package for testing deployment smaller.
  • We can create smaller deployment package which contains only necessary resources for each test case.

Cons

• It needs deployment for each test execution.
  • It brings longer deployment time for some cases. if you can keep test packages smaller or you can use faster embedded containers, you might think that it's not problem at all.
  • When I want to execute all of test classes, It will execute deployment many times (same as numbers of test classes). I guess it's inefficient.
  • Also there are some ways to avoid it such as creating delegate test classes, but I think it's annoying.
• It takes some times for making test package.
  • It gives us great ability to manipulate test package with ShrinkWrap, but it takes some time for making test package. it needs to make WAR or EAR through scanning all necessary classes and dependencies (jar files), for each test execution.
• Dependency resolving is annoying.
  • We can manipulate what testing package contains completely with Arquillian, but I guess it's annoying for some cases.
  • I have tried to resolve dependencies through Arquillian's Maven Plug-in API, but sometimes I got unexpected result which different with standalone Maven (such as exclusion, etc), and resolving is need to be executed for each test execution.
• We have to include testing dependencies such as Mockito or DBUnit on the deployment.
  • I know it's not a problem for many cases, I just feel it is not likely to me. I guess that these are not required on the server-side.

Remote EJB

Pros

• We can control the time of deployment completely.
  • We can execute many test classes for deployment only once.
  • It reduces many deployment time and test execution time for some cases.
• We can do testing against pure production resources.
• We don't need to another preparation of testing packages through resolving resources and dependencies.
• It depends on only more simply and standardized technologies.
  • We don't need to mark @RunWith(Arquillian.class) on test classes.
  • All we need is just lookup the remote bean on the method marked @Before, and invoke target method.

Cons

• Testable resources are limited on EJBs that have remote interface.
  • We can't test CDI Managed Beans on this way.
• All of method parameters and return object are need to be serializable.
  • Also larger serializable objects in the test would make testing performance worse.
• We have to create remote interfaces for beans that needs to be tested.
  • It's annoying, and remote interfaces are unnecessary for production environment at some occasions.
• EJBs are considered as heavier than CDI Managed Beans.
• Performance of remote EJB lookups may vary between environments.
  • I experienced that it takes 1 second or more with GlassFish3.
  • Now I'm using WildFly 8.0.0Final, it takes only some milli-seconds.
• We have to deploy the whole application package for every testing.
  • Larger application needs more time for deployment.
  • So, we have to keep the size of projects at appropriate size.

Conclusion and how to overcome cons

• I prefer Remote EJB at present time.
• Annoying preparation of remote interfaces are not pain as much to me.
  • we can make remote interfaces this way, it needs only small amount of additional code:

public interface BusinessDayUtil {

    boolean isBusinessDay(Date date);

    Date addDays(Date date, int days);

    @javax.ejb.Remote
    interface Remote extends BusinessDayUtil {
    }

    @javax.ejb.Local
    interface Local extends BusinessDayUtil {
    }
}

• Implementation class:

@Stateless
public class BusinessDayUtilImpl implements BusinessDayUtil.Local, BusinessDayUtil.Remote {
...

• And we can inject the bean through local-view easily:

public class MyJobOperatorImpl implements JobOperator {

    @Inject
    BusinessDayUtil.Local businessDayUtil;
...

• We don't want to EJBs to wrapping Exceptions with EJBException at some occasions.
  • It can avoid on application classes with annotate @ApplicationException
  • Also can achieve on API classes through placement of ejb-jar.xml.
  • I know it's a sidetracking topic, but I wrote for just a note for me.

        </application-exception>
    </assembly-descriptor>
</ejb-jar>

• Making all of arguments and return object serializable is impossible at some occasions.
  • Such as use of InputStream or OutputStream
  • But I guess we can take the old way which stick with plain JUnit testing with mocking frameworks, at such occasions.

How to avoid EJBException wrapping.

Environment

• WildFly 8.0.0.Final
• Oracle JDK7u51

How?

• We can avoid EJBException wrapping with @ApplicationException annotation.
• Also API classes (e.g. NoResultException) can be specified in WEB-INF/ejb-jar.xml.

For a example of integration testing, I will try to test a Stateless Session Bean through Remote Interface.

Environment

• WildFly 8.0.0.Final
• Apache Maven 3.1.1
• Oracle JDK7u51

How does the test case work?

1. Run Unit Testing JUnit classes
2. Start the application server
3. Deploy the application to the application server
4. Run Integration Testing JUnit classes
   • Remote EJB invocation testing
5. Undeploy the application
6. Stop the application server

Resources of the sample project

• Whole resources are available in GitHub

pom.xml

• 2 profiles are declared.

production

• It's just a skeleton. additional configuration are required here if you want to deploy to production environment using this pom.xml.

integration-test

• We can fire the integration-test by command “mvn -P integration-test verify”
• WildFly installation at “/Users/kyle/apps2/wildfly-8.0.0.Final” is assumed.
• It has a declaration of port-offset 30000 because I'm already using 8080 or 9990 ports for development.
  • Consequently, this pom.xml fires WildFly at port 38080 and 39990.

Test target classes

Hoge.java

• Just a POJO class.
• Supposed to be tested at unit test phase.

HigeImpl.java

• Stateless Session Bean class which implements Remote Interface.
• Supposed to be tested at integration-test phase.

JUnit Test classes

HogeTest.java

• Just a plain JUnit class.
• Supposed to be excluded at integration-test phase.

HigeTestIT.java

• There are some EJB lookup codes, and JNDI reference name declared here.
• Supposed to be excluded at unit-test phase.

jndi.properties

• Some JNDI remote lookup configurations here.
• If you want to run this project at a application server except WildFly, then you need to edit this.
• Port number 8080 is supposed to be used with the application server which integrated with IDE.
  • When kicked by Maven, it will be override by system property (related logics are available at HigeTestIT.java and pom.xml).
  • Consequently, both IDE and Maven can run the test case.

I introduced that a way to test a JSR352 job with Arquillian, but I guess it's might too complex for testing of a JSR352 job, so I'm going to try to test them without Arquillian.

Environment

• WildFly 8.0.0.Final
• Oracle JDK7u51

Sample project

• Whole resources are available at GitHub.
• Example test class is HelloJobTest.

How does it work?

1. JUnit test class lookups javax.batch.operations.JobOperator instance from Remote WildFly through Remote EJB Interface.
2. Test class kicks the job.
3. Test class will wait till the job finished.
4. Assert BatchStatus.

How do I run on other application servers?

• I don't know surely, but edit below resources may helps:
  • jndi.properties
  • AbstractJobTest.java (JNDI_NAME)
• Also appropriate jar files for remote EJB invocation are required.

Remarks

• It's much faster than Arquillian Remoting on my environment.
