The objective is to run basic integration with multiple versions of Tomcat across several databases. The test suite offers four modes of operation:
This is the default. If there are no parameters specified, the test suite runs with embedded H2 database and its driver fetched from Maven central.
When specified, the test suite could take advantage of DBAllocator service and allocate an arbitrary database system. It was tested to work well with Postgres family of database systems. The DBAllocator service is not public and thus it is not used in the upstream testing.
The third and the most versatile mode is to control a Docker daemon and to pull database images and to start containers. The test suite expects a Docker daemon listening to its REST commands and nothing else. No special or pre-fetched images or local dependencies are expected. Postgres family of databases is currently implemented.
With this option, the test suite relies on an external database to be running and details on how to connect to it must be provided.
All undermentioned examples expect a Tomcat installation pointed to by CATALINA_HOME env var. Certain users (mandatory) and logging (convenient) settings are also listed:

unzip apache-tomcat-9.0.89.zip

sed -i 's/<\/tomcat-users>/<user username="arquillian" password="arquillian" roles="manager-script"\/>\n<\/tomcat-users>/' ${CATALINA_HOME}/conf/tomcat-users.xmlThat is all. Nothing else is to be done for the Tomcat installation. One does not start Tomcat, the TS does it automatically.
pushd narayana/tomcatRun the TS:
mvn integration-test -Parq-tomcat -Dtomcat.user=arquillian -Dtomcat.pass=arquillian -Dtest.db.type=h2See logs, including Tomcat ones:

It is noteworthy that one can see the database trace log too, e.g.

...The overall runtime with the simple base integration
DBAllocator is a reservation tool paired with a driver repository, one simply adjusts these parameters:
mvn integration-test -Parq-tomcat -Dtomcat.user=arquillian -Dtomcat.pass=arquillian \
-Ddballocator.host.port=http://your.db.allocator.instance.example.com:8080 \
-Ddballocator.driver.url=http://path.to.your.drivers.stash.example.com/postgresql94/jdbc4/postgresql-42.1.1.jar \
-Dtest.db.type=dballocatorTo see logs:
vim tomcat-jta/target/failsafe-reports/org.jboss.narayana.tomcat.jta.integration.BaseITCase-output.txtWith DBAllocated database system, the TS does not retrieve database trace log though.
Verify you have a Docker daemon running. One can either use secure socket and a special user group or a plain REST control. Note that such exposure enables anyone to take control of the host system with a malicious container. The default Test suite setting is insecure and can be used only on trusted hosts withing trusted network with trusted images.
Note the -H option in your Docker daemon config:
cat /etc/sysconfig/docker | grep OPTIONS
OPTIONS='--selinux-enabled --log-driver=journald -H tcp://127.0.0.1:2375 -H unix:///var/run/docker.sock'Check the daemon replies:
docker -H=tcp://127.0.0.1:2375 ps -a;
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMESLet's run the TS with a database from a container:
mvn integration-test -Parq-tomcat -Dtomcat.user=arquillian -Dtomcat.pass=arquillian \
-Dtest.db.type=container \
-Dcontainer.database.driver.artifact=org.postgresql:postgresql:42.2.1 \
-Dcontainer.database.image=postgres:10The aforementioned example uses postgres:10 from DockerHub Postgres, i.e. a vanilla image without
any additional layers or modifications. All configuration is done at runtime, see class PostgresContainerAllocator
around final CreateContainerResponse narayanaDB ... assignment. To implement e.g. a MariaDB allocator one would simply refactor PostgresContainerAllocator class into a hierarchy.
To see the results:
vim tomcat-jta/target/failsafe-reports/org.jboss.narayana.tomcat.jta.integration.BaseITCase-output.txtIt is noteworthy that the test suite retrieves trace log from the database container, see:

See Jenkins job: https://ci.modcluster.io/job/narayana-tomcat/. There are three axis:
- Tomcat version, 9.0.89
- Database, h2, postgres:9.4 and postgres:10
- JDK, openjdk-8 and oraclejdk-9
Narayana neither builds nor runs tests with JDK 9 at the moment, see:
The best thing about using database in the Container is you can easily start it manually, take the war file and investigate.
The test application the test suite generated is stored for you in narayana/tomcat/tomcat-deployment/_DEFAULT__Basic-app_test.war, so one can simply setup a debug environment and use Byteman and Debugger -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=1661 -Xnoagent to step the Tomcat run.

The current implementation expects jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec-1.0.0.Final.jar to be present in your ${CATALINA_HOME}/lib directory. The test suite adds the file on its own and it removes it after the test. So for this session, one might need to:
wget http://central.maven.org/maven2/org/jboss/spec/javax/transaction/jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec/1.1.0.Final/jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec-1.1.0.Final.jar -O ${CATALINA_HOME}/lib/jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec-1.1.0.Final.jaror

If you need to debug manually as we describe in this example, you have to watch the log yourself. Note the container does not log to stdout but to a file within its ephemeral filesystem:

Please note the connection pool values are only testing ones, they do not represent the numbers your web application could get the best performance with.
