5 Executing Tests

The Persistence TCK uses the Junit and Jboss Arquillian frameworks to execute the tests.

This chapter includes the following topics:

Note

The Persistence TCK is not depended on any particular build tool to run the tests. It will be convenient and advisable to create a Apache Maven project to setup and run the TCK. This chapter will henceforth use instructions and steps to provide setup with Apache Maven as a build tool.

5.1 Starting Test

The Persistence TCK can be run from the command line in your shell environment by executing the TCK jar.

Note

The mvn command referenced in the following two procedures and elsewhere in this guide is the Apache Maven build tool, which will need to be downloaded separately.

5.1.1 To Start Test in Command-Line Mode

Start the Junit tests using the following command:

mvn verify

Example 5-1 Persistence TCK Signature Tests

To run the Persistence TCK signature tests, enter the following commands:

mvn verify -Dit.test=ee.jakarta.tck.persistence.signaturetest.**

Example 5-2 Single Test Directory

To run a single test directory, enter the following commands:

mvn verify -Dit.test=ee.jakarta.tck.persistence.core.annotations.access.field.**

Example 5-3 Subset of Test Directories

To run a subset of test directories, enter the following commands:

mvn verify -Dit.test=ee.jakarta.tck.persistence.core.annotations.**

5.2 Running a Subset of the Tests

Use the following modes to run a subset of the tests:

5.2.1 To Run a Subset of Tests in Command-Line Mode

Start the test run by executing the following command:

mvn verify -Dit.test=ee.jakarta.tck.persistence.core.annotations

The tests in the directory and its subdirectories are run.

5.3 Running the TCK Against another CI

Some test scenarios are designed to ensure that the configuration and deployment of all the prebuilt Persistence TCK tests against one Compatible Implementation are successful operating with other compatible implementations, and that the TCK is ready for compatibility testing against the Vendor and Compatible Implementations.

  1. Verify that you have followed the configuration instructions in Section 4.1, "Configuring Your Environment to Run the TCK Against the Compatible Implementation."

  2. If required, verify that you have completed the steps in Section 4.3.2, "Deploying the Prebuilt Archives."

  3. Run the tests, as described in Section 5.1, "Starting the tests," and, if desired, Section 5.2, "Running a Subset of the Tests."

5.4 Running the TCK Against a Vendor’s Implementation

This test scenario is one of the compatibility test phases that all Vendors must pass.

5.5 Test Reports

A set of report files is created for every test run. These report files can be found in the target directory that the test is run. After a test run is completed, the Junit framework writes reports for the test run.
