Executable jar for Quantum Automation Framework

[Shankar Choudhury]

Hi,

We are using QAF across enterprise.There is a requirement to have an executable jar for entire QAF and the execution should start just with dbl click of the jar file.

Is there a way to package QAF into an executable jar file and run as standalone?

Thanks

Shankar

It should be done your project level where you package your test case with all assets along with all dependencies and make executable as you wish.

Hello Jayaswal, 

  Following up on old thread.

  Do you have any reference to package QAF into an executable JAR ? 

  Build tool used : Maven

  Framework 3.0.1

  Factory class : BDD2

  Attached the POM file we are using.

Purpose : 

1. Want to deploy the entire framework with dependencies as a Snapshot to be utilized on CICD platforms

2. Execute as a JAR file - To share it with non test Automation team for test execution on local machines.

Thank you.

You can use maven-assembly-plugin. You can refer related post. While packaging keep resources and BDD files outside jar so that can be modified if needed without rebuilding the project/jar.

Hi Jayaswal,

 

I was able to pakage everything into a jar but nothing happens after run it through command.
I noticed there is a config for mainClass:
<manifest> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> <mainClass>fully.qualified.MainClass</mainClass> </manifest>

May I know what's the mainClass we should use to trigger execution?

Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.

Hi Jayaswal, 

I got one but not sure if it's correct.
https://github.com/qmetry/qaf/blob/master/src/com/qmetry/qaf/automation/core/QAFTestBase.java#L614
Could you help to confirm and provide some advices?

Thanks.

[cjayswal]

QAFTestBase is not right candidate for MainClass. It can be your custom runner class.

The simplest way is follow the same way as to running testng command line.
