Michael Vorburger.ch commented on FINERACT-764:
-----------------------------------------------
I've started doing above, see latest commited pushed to
[https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/525/commits,] and there is now a new
{{SpringBootLoginTest}}, which uses a regular local DB instead of MariaDB4j.
Unfortunately it does not yet pass - something with the (base?) URL seems to be
off, and I'm struggling to figure out what it is.
Once {{SpringBootLoginTest}} passes, it should then (hopefully) be fairly quick
to make each of the real integration tests extends the (new)
{{AbstractSpringBootIntegrationTest}} to run as Spring Boot integration test
instead of against an external Tomcat started by the Gradle plugin.
> Run Integration Tests using Spring Boot IT support instead of on Tomcat
> started separately by gradle-tomcat-plugin

> Priority: Major
>
> https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/525 for FINERACT-700 struggles to get
> "./gradlew integrationTest" working under an up-to-date Gradle version, due
> to the gradle-tomcat-plugin failing to start Tomcat. The problem can also be
> seen (on that PR, as it stands right now) via {{./gradlew tomcatrunwar}}.
> https://github.com/bmuschko/gradle-tomcat-plugin mentions that its author "I
> don't have much time to contribute anymore. In practice this means far less
> activity, responsiveness on issues and new releases from my end."
> What we IMHO really should do instead is to ditch our use of
> gradle-tomcat-plugin and just use Spring Boot's very nice built-in support
> for Integration Test, see here:
> *
> https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/2.1.5.RELEASE/reference/htmlsingle/#boot-features-testing-spring-applications
> * https://www.baeldung.com/spring-boot-testing (see 7. Integration Testing
> with @SpringBootTest)
> * https://reflectoring.io/spring-boot-test/
> I wouldn't have time for this, but perhaps someone would like to pick this up?
