Can't use Arquillian with remote WL

Question

I want to use arquillian to create unit tests for a ADF project. The tests should run on a remote WL 10.3.6.

With a weld-container everything is fine but if I change to remote WL I always get the following exception:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: ArquillianServletRunner not found. Could not determine ContextRoot from ProtocolMetadata, please contact DeployableContainer developer.

I removed all unneeded stuff to have a very basic setup / project:

FirstArquilianTest.java

package de.company;

import junit.framework.Assert;    
import org.jboss.arquillian.container.test.api.Deployment;
import org.jboss.arquillian.junit.Arquillian;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.ShrinkWrap;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.spec.JavaArchive;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

@RunWith(Arquillian.class)
public class FirstArquilianTest {

    @Deployment
    public static JavaArchive createDeployment() {
    return ShrinkWrap.create(JavaArchive.class);
    }

    @Test
    public void failTest() {
    Assert.fail("Not yet implemented");
    }
}

When I start the test I will receive the following output:

Sep 13, 2013 10:51:34 AM org.jboss.arquillian.container.wls.WebLogicDeployerClient deploy
INFO: Starting weblogic.Deployer to deploy the test artifact.
Sep 13, 2013 10:51:38 AM org.jboss.arquillian.container.wls.WebLogicDeployerClient forkWebLogicDeployer
INFO: weblogic.Deployer appears to have terminated successfully.

Sep 13, 2013 10:51:41 AM org.jboss.arquillian.container.wls.WebLogicDeployerClient forkWebLogicDeployer
INFO: weblogic.Deployer appears to have terminated successfully.

If I add a breakpoint I can see that the application is deloyed to the weblogic (in weblogic console). Here everything looks right.

Maybe anyone can help me with this exception?

Update: I tried it with

<groupId>org.jboss.arquillian.container</groupId>
<artifactId>arquillian-wls-remote-12.1</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0.Final-SNAPSHOT</version>

but it has the same effect / exception.

I exported the artefact as mentioned in the comments. Here is the output:

Update: I changed the dep to "arquillian-wls-remote-10.3" and now I receive this exception:

After changing to "arquillian-wls-remote-10.3" an ear instead of a war is build. The ear has much more content (web.xml, etc.). Will upload an example. Here is the zipped ear-File: http://www.guigarage.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/ear.zip

Solution You need at least one EJB in your deployment. If no EJB is specified the ear can't be deployed to WL. After adding a EJB everithing was fine. The WL-Test from Arquillian is a great example: https://github.com/arquillian/arquillian-container-wls/blob/master/wls-remote-10.3/src/test/java/org/jboss/arquillian/container/wls/remote_10_3/WebLogicDeployJarTest.java

Answer 1

WLS 10.3.x if I'm not mistaken uses only the Java EE 5 APIs, and hence you'll need to use the arquillian-wls-remote-10.3 artifact for this series of the WLS containers.

arquillian-wls-remote-12.1 is to be used only for WLS 12c.

As for testing JAR deployments on Java EE 5 containers, Arquillian chooses to wrap JARs inside an EAR file to make them deployable. Ideally for Java EE 5 containers, you would create EJB modules as JAR files, and hence this would make sense in such a scenario.

I do not know what you want to test yet, but the advice here is: your ShrinkWrap deployment should mirror the actual deployment you make in production as much as possible. If you're testing EJBs, you should prepare a deployment that includes the EJBs in the same structure as your project build output. If you're testing a POJO that resides in a utility JAR eventually packaged in a WAR/EAR file, then by all means create a ShrinkWrap JavaArchive for the JAR, but wrap it inside a WebArchive or EnterpriseArchive for Java EE 5 containers. You may find that Java EE 6 containers operate differently so you will need revisit these guidelines.

If you want an example test, on how JAR based deployments are tested in WLS 10.3.x, you could take a look at this test in the Arquillian WLS container test suite.
