How to add an integration test?

Disclamer: clearly this could (and should) be done in a unit-test, but it’s created as a minimum example, as I’m struggling with the complete basics of how to reference a class from an integration test. The example in the plugin tutorials simply references the boilerplate test already present, and event the part about adding a “traditional integration test” simply does a println and an bogus assert.

To create the minimum example, I’ve created a new plugin with atlas-create-jira-plugin.

I have this basic class: HelperClass containing:

package com.nicolaj.cat.impl;

public class HelperClass {

    private String name;

    public HelperClass(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getName(){
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name){
        this.name = name;
    }

}

I would like to write a test for this that sets a state, reads it, changes the state and validates that the state has been changed. HelperClassTest contains:

package it.com.nicolaj.cat;

import com.atlassian.plugins.osgi.test.AtlassianPluginsTestRunner;
import com.nicolaj.cat.impl.HelperClass;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

import static org.junit.Assert.assertFalse;

@RunWith(AtlassianPluginsTestRunner.class)
public class HelperClassTest {

    @Test
    public void someTest()
    {
        // Arrange
        HelperClass hc = new HelperClass("somestring");
        String before = hc.getName();

        // Act
        hc.setName("newstring");
        String after = hc.getName();

        // Assert
        assertFalse("The name hasn't changed!", before.equals(after));
    }

}

If I just run atlas-integration-test, I get an error NoClassDefFoundError for HelperClass. On Google I found the article: NoClassDefFoundError. It says to “make sure the class and package name are correct and that the class is declared as a component in its atlassian-plugin.xml .”

  • The class and package name is correct. The class is called HelperClass and it’s in the package com.nicolaj.cat.impl which is imported with import com.nicolaj.cat.impl.HelperClass;.
  • When I add it as a component in atlassian-plugin.xml like below: (full atlassian-plugin.xml-file in the bottom)
...
<component key="helperClass" class="com.nicolaj.cat.impl.HelperClass" />
...

however, I get another error:

...
  No tests found in class [it.com.nicolaj.cat.HelperClassTest]: No tests found in class [it.com.nicolaj.cat.HelperClassTest]
...

With the stack trace:

My atlassian-plugin.xml-file looks like this:

<atlassian-plugin key="${project.groupId}.${project.artifactId}-tests" name="${project.name}" plugins-version="2">
    <plugin-info>
        <description>${project.description}</description>
        <version>${project.version}</version>
        <vendor name="${project.organization.name}" url="${project.organization.url}" />
    </plugin-info>

    <!-- from our base plugin -->
    <component-import key="myComponent" interface="com.nicolaj.cat.api.MyPluginComponent"/>

    <!-- from the product container -->
    <component-import key="applicationProperties" interface="com.atlassian.sal.api.ApplicationProperties" />

    <component key="helperClass" class="com.nicolaj.cat.impl.HelperClass" />

</atlassian-plugin>

And my project structure looks like this:

Any advice would be helpful.

PS: I know that the above test should just be a unit-test, but it’s created as a minimum example of “an integration test that is not being picked up by junit.”
