JarCastingWAITT
WAITT is the Web Application Integration Test Tool.
Using WAITT, you can deploy your application to any server without building war or jar file.
Usage
Add plugin to your pom.xml
<plugin>
<groupId>net.unit8.waitt</groupId>
<artifactId>waitt-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.3.0-beta1</version>
<configuration>
<servers>
<server>
<groupId>net.unit8.waitt.server</groupId>
<artifactId>waitt-tomcat8</artifactId>
<version>1.3.0-beta1</version>
</server>
</servers>
</configuration>
</plugin>
And execute following command to start tomcat8.
% mvn waitt:run
Then web browser will be started automatically.
If you do not want to start a browser, you can use a run-headless goal as follows.
% mvn waitt:run-headless
Build an executable jar
Waitt plugin can build an executable jar.
% mvn waitt:jar
It doesn't include non-resource files automatically. So, if your app refers asset files outside jar file, you can use -d option in runtime.
% java -jar xxx-standalone.jar -d src/main/webapp
Supported server products
- Tomcat8
<server>
<groupId>net.unit8.waitt.server</groupId>
<artifactId>waitt-tomcat8</artifactId>
