Java Reference
In-Depth Information
Okay, now let's see what core dependencies are needed to run the Arquillian test
case.
Configuring the pom.xml file
The first thing that is necessary to include in order to run an Arquillian test is the
ju-
nit
dependency that is required to run our unit tests:
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
As you can see, this dependency (just like the following ones) bears the
test
scope;
this means that it will be used by Maven when running tests, so it will not add this
library to the final artifact.
Note
This dependency as part of the JBoss
Bill of Materials
(
BOM
) does not need to
state the dependency version. The same applies for Arquillian-specific depend-
encies.
Next, if you want to test enterprise features such as EJB and the
Java Transaction
API
(
JTA
), you need to include the
org.jboss.arquillian.junit
dependency
as well:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.junit</groupId>
<artifactId>arquillian-junit-container</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
