Resource relative paths in test cases...
Hello -
I'm working on maven-izing a project that's composed of three modules. I
have the POMs configured with proper dependencies. Compile all works now
and now I'm tying to execute the Test Cases and have some problems - it has
to do with how Maven resolves the resource locations...
The test cases are using DBUNIT framework to insert data into the db before
running. Inside the getDataSet() method in test case I need to create an
InputStream to the XML file that contains the test data for the run. The
code implementation that I have that works perfectly in Eclipse is this:
protected IDataSet getDataSet() throws Exception {
String fileName = "cods_user_auth-seed.xml"; // data file
URL rootPath = UserAdminUserTest.class.getResource("/data/" +
fileName); // root path location + specific location of the file
System.out.println("rootPath=" + rootPath);
return new FlatXmlDataSet(
new FileInputStream(rootPath.getFile())); // get the file
as InputStream
}
When I run in Eclipse, the rootPath that gets resolved is this: >>>>>
rootPath=file:/C:/workspaces/maersk/cods/CodsWebTesting/bin/data/cods_user_auth-seed.xml
When I run in maven, the rootPath resolves to this (which is not found):
>>>>>
rootPath=file:/C:/workspaces/maersk/cods/target/test-classes/com/ibm/cods/web/data/service/adminuseradmin/
data/cods_user_auth-seed.xml
I know this is probably a Java resource question, but could someone
recommend a uniform way I can use to retrieve the resource/file that will
resolve equally well in Eclipse and in Maven2? I'm sooo close...
Thanks,
James

- Absolute pathnames, beginning with "/" are fully qualified file names
within the jar file.
- Relative pathnames, not beginning with "/" are relative to the class upon
which getResourceAsStream is called...."
Maybe try the getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream() method with
a relative path?

Sorry, I must be dense, but I do not understand how that thread helps me...
I've tried this code:
InputStream xml =
getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("/data/" + fileName);
return new FlatXmlDataSet(xml);
But now Eclipse cannot find the files... and neither can Maven.
My original data xml files are under CodsWebTesting/test/data directory. I
use maven to copy them into 'target\test-classes\data' directory - but
maven is not finding it there when I run mvn test... There's not much I
can do abut the structure of the CodsWebTesting project at this point...
How could I convince maven to look for these XML files in
/target/test-classes/data dir or some other dir under /target ?
Thanks,
James

This assumes "cods_user_auth-seed.xml" is located at
"src/test/resources":
InputStream xml =
getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("/data/" +
fileName);
return new FlatXmlDataSet(xml);
