It is also possible you keep the test execution as part of the Maven process/build. In that case Exec Maven Plugin ( https://www.mojohaus.org/exec-maven-plugin/usage.html) will be a good friend of yours. There are some plugins that help you deploy to Kubernetes easily (Jkube and some others). Once the services are up, you can run the test the way you want (Surefire, Robot Framework whatever) And after the tests tear down the services.
Maven actually has more lifecycles phases than most know ( https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html) Important for you might be the pre-integration-test (setup Kubernetest here) and post-integration-test (tear down resources here). Just make sure the test script itself will not fail the build and that the build failing is done in verify phase after tear down. Otherwise it becomes costly quickly. ma 6. kesäk. 2022 klo 7.57 David Karr (davidmichaelk...@gmail.com) kirjoitti: > Along the lines of Bernd's response, I would (as we have done in our own > builds) use Maven to build the artifacts that we deploy to our intranet > repositories, but we do everything else in Jenkins pipeline script.
