How to resolve arquillian static variable = null


Since i upgraded to WildFly 23 I have not been able to get shrinkwrap/arquillian to resolve classes correctly.

Here is the createDeployment function

    public static Archive<?> createBasicShrinkWrappedDeployment()
    {
        File[] mavenImports = Maven.resolver()
                .loadPomFromFile("pom.xml")
                .importRuntimeDependencies()
                .resolve()
                .withTransitivity()
                .asFile();

        return ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class, "<project>-tests.war")
                .addAsLibraries(mavenImports)
                .addPackages(true, "org.<company>.crs")
                .addAsResource("jbossas-managed/test-persistence.xml", "META-INF/persistence.xml")
                .addAsResource("jbossas-managed/test-orm.xml", "META-INF/orm.xml")
                .addAsResource("templates/email/template1.vm")
                .addAsResource("templates/email/template2.vm")
                .addAsResource("templates/email/template3.vm")
                .addAsResource("templates/email/template4.vm")
                .addAsResource("templates/pdf/template5.vm")


                .addAsWebInfResource("beans.xml", "beans.xml");
    }

My issue is that for testing we have some test data that exists at: org.<company>.crs.utils, it is a bunch of static data that we use for our functional tests to compare the expected database data to the static data in the application. Here is an example:

package org.<company>.crs.utils;
public class UserInfo{
    public static class Id
    {
        public static UUID Steve = UUID.fromString("...");
        public static UUID TestPerson = UUID.fromString("...");
        public static UUID Anonymous = UUID.fromString("...");
    }
    ... <more test classes like Id>
}

Now, when we run the tests we may run something like:

Assert.assertEquals(permission.getIdentityId(), UserInfo.Id.Steve);

However, UserInfo.Id.Steve is null, i am assuming this is a shrinkwrap or arquillian issue since that data is statically defined and cannot be null.

This had worked until we updated the application server from WF8 to WF23 (and made a bunch of other changes along the way). Wondering if anyone knows what caused this, or how to resolve it?


Solution

  • Further developments in the troubleshooting process have concluded that this is an issue with (i think) my IDE and not the testing framework. See the above comments for a link to the new question about the IDE issue.
