[ANN] Grails Maven Plugin Functional Testing Project

jdpgrailsdev
All,

    I would like to announce the creation of a functional testing framework/project for the Grails Maven Plugin.  For those of you who use Maven with Grails, the stability of the Grails Maven plugin from release to release has become somewhat of an issue (see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRAILS-6824, for example).  The goal of this project is to catch these integration issues BEFORE a release of Grails to ensure compatibility for the Maven users out there.  The structure of the project was heavily influenced by the Grails Testing Tests project currently in the Grails repository on GitHub (https://github.com/grails/grails-testing-tests).  Currently, the project performs functional tests of the majority of the goals exposed by the Grails Maven plugin.  My goal is to get 100% coverage of the goals from a functional standpoint (i.e. testing all scenarios and with all options).  The tests have already uncovered an issue related to how the plugin handles dependencies when running the functional-test goal of the Grails Maven plugin (see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRAILS-7149).  This is currently the only failing test in the project.  The code for the project can be found on GitHub:  https://github.com/jdpgrailsdev/Grails-Maven-Plugin-Testing-Tests.  If you are interested in helping or have suggestions for the project (i.e. issues with the Grails Maven integration you have encountered in the past and could have been avoided by automated functional testing), please let me know.  As a final note, I would like to offer thanks to Luke Daley for his help and guidance and for building the framework upon which this project was created.  I would also like to thank Peter Ledbrook for taking the time to help me get the project together and hosted on GitHub.

Thanks,

--Jonathan

This is a very important contribution Jonathan. Thanks very much. We
should try to get it running continuously against the 1.3.7 snapshots
on hudson.grails.org

Cheers
Graeme

I'm glad to help out.  Please let me know if you need any help getting it up and running.  I am going to continue updating/expanding the tests in my spare time.
