Hi, I am just exploring the possibilties to integrate my server side tests into the maven build. I am already using the serverside JUnit tests mechanism provided by Sling and I am quite happy with it. But the way how these tests are currently integrated into the maven build process looks a bit odd to me.
Taking [0] as example I feel a bit strange about the getJunitServletUrl() method of the SlingRemoteTestParameters interface. It expects me to return a URL where the serverside tests reside. The problem is that this URL differs depending on the environment where I want to execute the tests. On the developer machine it might be localhost, on the CI environment it's definitly running on a different machine. I would prefer if I could inject this parameter via maven, as I already have a number of profiles available to separate these settings. I don't want to build code which reads this from the maven command line or from somewhere else. In the end I would prefer to have a maven plugin where I can specify these settings and which then connects to the server and fetches the results. WDYT?
