This step by step guide explains / contains the following
- Configure a Seam 2.2.0.GA, Hibernate (as the JPA implementation provider), RichFaces, PrimeFaces based project to be built by Maven (tested on 2.0.9 plus).
- A simple Seam based web application which allows us to save (create and update) Employee details (just name and email to keep it simple) in MySQL database.
- Write Seam based Integration test cases that run in JBoss Embedded container that run with TestNG.
- Code coverage report generation using Cobertura.
- The given project in this post is deployed on Tomcat 6.0.x.
The executable project code is available in Google code and can be obtained by downloading here. (Please note that I have excluded files that ship with embedded JBoss download. I have provided screen shots of the final folder structure to avoid any confusion)
- Choose a folder of your choice. This will be known as ROOT folder for the project. Create a folder called src under it. Also create an empty file called pom.xml
- Under this src folder, create two folders called main and test.
- Under main folder, we will create the following folders – java, resources, sql and webapp.
- Under test folder, we will create the following folders – java, resources and a empty file called testng.xml.
What have we done so far ?:
- We have almost created a Seam based Maven archetype. The main folder contains files that are bundled in the deployable web application. test folder contains files used in various testing (Unit, Integration etc).
The final folder structure is provided as screen shots.
Let us start with the employee table in database.
CREATE TABLE employee (
id INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
name varchar(100) NOT NULL,
email varchar(70) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
The related JPA entity class is as below. The package is com.karthik.entity (full source code available in the zip file that can be downloaded).[This file is under src/main/java/com/karthik/entity]
@Entity
@Table(name = "employee")
@NamedQueries({
@NamedQuery(name = "Employee.findAll", query = "SELECT e FROM Employee e")})
public class Employee implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
@Basic(optional = false)
@Column(name = "id")
private Integer id;
@Basic(optional = false)
@Column(name = "name")
private String name;
@Basic(optional = false)
@Column(name = "email")
private String email;
Now we need a Seam backing bean to save a new Employee data, update existing Employee data and retrieve all employees in database. The source code of the backing bean EmployeeSaveAction.java is provided below. [This file is under src/main/java/com/karthik/action]
package com.karthik.action;
import com.karthik.entity.Employee;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.List;
import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import org.jboss.seam.ScopeType;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Create;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Factory;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.In;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Name;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Scope;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.datamodel.DataModel;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.datamodel.DataModelSelection;
@Name("employeeaction")
public class EmployeeSaveAction implements Serializable{
@In
EntityManager em;
private Employee employee;
@DataModel
List<Employee> employeeList;
@DataModelSelection("employeeList")
Employee selectedEmployee;
@Create
public void init() {
employee = new Employee();
}
@Factory("employeeList")
public void populateEmployeeList(){
employeeList=em.createNamedQuery("Employee.findAll").getResultList();
}
public void createEmployee() {
em.persist(employee);
//clear UI values
employee = new Employee();
populateEmployeeList();
}
public void update(){
selectedEmployee=em.merge(selectedEmployee);
populateEmployeeList();
}
public Employee getEmployee() {
return employee;
}
public void setEmployee(Employee employee) {
this.employee = employee;
}
}
Now we focus on configuring Seam to do the necessary injection in the above backing bean. First comes components.xml (this is under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<components xmlns="http://jboss.com/products/seam/components"

<persistence:entity-manager-factory name="exampleDatabase"/>
<persistence:managed-persistence-context name="em"

</components>
Now we need a UI to create, update values. Part of the source code of employee.xhtml is provided below [The file is under src/main/webapp]. Complete source code is provided in the zip file that can be downloaded from Google code.
<h:form>
<rich:messages/>
<s:validateAll>
<rich:panel id="homepanel">
<f:facet name="header">

</f:facet>
<h:panelGrid columns="2">
<h:outputText value="Employee Name:"/>
<h:inputText value="#{employeeaction.employee.name}" required="true"/>
<h:outputText value="Email:"/>
<h:inputText value="#{employeeaction.employee.email}" required="true"/>
<h:commandButton action="#{employeeaction.createEmployee}" value="Create Employee"/>
</h:panelGrid>
<br/>
List of Existing Employees
<br/>
<rich:dataTable value="#{employeeList}" var="emp">
<rich:column>
<f:facet name="header">

</f:facet>
<h:commandButton action="#{employeeaction.update}" value="Update"/>
</rich:column>
</rich:dataTable>
</rich:panel>
</s:validateAll>
</h:form>
The faces-config.xml file is provided below (File is under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<faces-config version="1.2"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<!-- Facelets support -->

<view-handler>com.sun.facelets.FaceletViewHandler</view-handler>
</application>
</faces-config>
We do not utilize pages.xml defining page navigation in Seam but for the sake of completeness it is provided below. (File is under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<pages xmlns="http://jboss.com/products/seam/pages"

And here comes web.xml (The file is under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF].
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="2.5"

Dont get bored 
, there are only two more files left under main folder that are part of our web application.
We need to have a marker file called seam.properties under src/main/resources folder (that will eventually be under WEB-INF/classes of your web application).
Seam will scan and register our Seam components only if this file is detected.
And the last one is persistence.xml (The file is under src/main/resources/META-INF)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="1.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd">
<persistence-unit name="exampleDatabase" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
<provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
<!--Uncomment the below when you use Tomcat-->
<jta-data-source>java:comp/env/jdbc/exampleDatabase</jta-data-source>
<!--Uncomment the below when you run test cases in embedded server-->
<!--<non-jta-data-source>java:/exampleDatabase</non-jta-data-source>-->
<properties>
<property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect"/>
<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="validate"/>
<property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="false"/>
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
Now we shift our focus to test folder. Let us start with testng.xml (TestNG configuration file which is under src/test)
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://beust.com/testng/testng-1.0.dtd" >
<suite name="KarthiksExampleSuite">
<parameter name="datasourceJndiName" value="java:/exampleDatabase"/>
<parameter name="database" value="MySQL" />
<parameter name="binaryDir" value="img/" />
<test name="Group Test">
<packages>
<package name="com.karthik.test" />
</packages>
</test>
</suite>
Next file is the Seam based TestNG test case which runs test cases to verify the creation of a new Employee in database. The file is under src/test/java/com/karthik/test
and the source code is provided below.
package com.karthik.test;
import com.karthik.entity.Employee;
import javax.faces.model.DataModel;
import org.jboss.seam.mock.DBUnitSeamTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class EmployeeTest extends DBUnitSeamTest {
private int numOfEmpBeforeAdd;
private String name;
private String email;
@Test(groups = "embeddedcontainer")
public void testEmployee() throws Exception {
new FacesRequest("/employee.xhtml") {
@Override
protected void updateModelValues() throws Exception {
name = "Name of employee" + System.nanoTime();
email = "abc" + System.nanoTime() + "@xmail.com";
setValue("#{employeeaction.employee.name}", name);
setValue("#{employeeaction.employee.email}", email);
}
@Override
protected void invokeApplication() {
DataModel empList = (DataModel) getValue("#{employeeList}");
numOfEmpBeforeAdd = empList.getRowCount();
assert invokeAction("#{employeeaction.createEmployee}") == null;
}
@Override
protected void renderResponse() {
DataModel empList = (DataModel) getValue("#{employeeList}");
assert empList.getRowCount() == (numOfEmpBeforeAdd + 1);
empList.setRowIndex(numOfEmpBeforeAdd + 1);
boolean isEmployeeAvailable = false;
for (int ctr = 0; ctr < empList.getRowCount(); ctr++) {
empList.setRowIndex(ctr);
Employee employee = (Employee) empList.getRowData();
if (employee.getName().equals(name) && employee.getEmail().equals(email)) {
isEmployeeAvailable = true;
}
}//for loop ends
assert isEmployeeAvailable;
}
}.run();
}
@Override
protected void prepareDBUnitOperations() {
}
}
Now comes the most important part of configuring the embedded JBoss container. The configuration is involves 3 easy steps.
Step 1: Please download embedded-jboss-beta3.SP10.zip. Extract it to any temporary folder and copy the content of bootstrap folder (do not
copy bootstrap but only the content in it) and paste it under src/test/resources
Step 2: Configure the datasource for the embedded JBoss container. The file testmysql-ds.xml (The file is placed under src/test/resources/deploy)
is as below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE datasources
PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD JBOSS JCA Config 1.5//EN"
"http://www.jboss.com/j2ee/dtd/jboss-ds_1_5.dtd">
<datasources>
<local-tx-datasource>
<jndi-name>exampleDatabase</jndi-name>
<connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/ck</connection-url>
<driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class>
<user-name>root</user-name>
<password>password</password>
</local-tx-datasource>
</datasources>
Step 3: In the above testng.xml configuration we had mentioned the binary folder as img. So create a folder called img under src/test/resources
and place an empty marker file called marker.txt (An empty marker file is needed so that Maven copies the empty folder also).
With that we complete the files under test folder. And now the most important file pom.xml which is under ROOT folder parallel to src folder.

Things to consider:
To run the Integration test cases comment the Tomcat specific datasource configuration and uncomment JBoss specific datasource configuration as shown in the comment section of persistence.xml reproduced below. (You can avoid this ugly way of comment and uncomment by using Maven profiles – one profile for testing and the other for a deployable in Tomcat).
<!--Uncomment the below when you use Tomcat-->
<!--jta-data-source>java:comp/env/jdbc/exampleDatabase</jta-data-source-->
<!--Uncomment the below when you run test cases in embedded server-->
<non-jta-data-source>java:/exampleDatabase</non-jta-data-source>
The test cases are executed when we run a command like mvn install
To run cobertura and generate reports, the command is mvn cobertura:cobertura (The cobertura reports will be under target/site/cobertura. Please click on the index.html to view the report.)
To create a deployable, make the required change in persistence.xml (as explained in Things to consider) and run the command like mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip (As the test cases will not execute with a Tomcat specific data source configuration in persistence.xml. I will try to do more analysis on this and check if it is possible to pick up different files one for test and the other to be packaged in web application deployable).
Hope this post is of some use. Please provide your suggestions (to improve this configuration) as a comment.
