Best practice when choosing configuration between test and production server

[Laurentiu Trica <la...@finalfolder.biz>]

Hello,

I'm using Camel with Servicemix and I have a hard time managing the test and
production server configurations for endpoints.
Is there a way to go in this cases?
I mean, I have different route details for test and production servers, so I
have to constantly pay attention when deploying.
And this is a stopper for automatic testing my application.

Any piece of information is welcomed!
Thank you.

Hi,

you should use properties for the endpoint urls or for parts of them. 
Often it is also a good idea to split spring contexts into a fixed part 
and a part that is different for the stages.

In the test project deploy your test properties in src/test/resources.
In the server then deploy your real properties on the classpath. I have 
also seen projects that use a -D variable for starting the server. So 
for example
they have -Dstage=prod to indicate te production system. Then they can 
use this property in the spring config to load different property files.
