[FIXED] Run Tests SpringBootTest from executable jar in command line

Issue

I need to run a jar with all tests in it. I could build all test classes inside jar but I don't know how to boot a main class to run junit tests in springboot. Is it possible I run a command line to run jar and start all test and ignore mainclass.

Test Class

class="lang-java prettyprint-override">@ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)
@AutoConfigureMockMvc
@SpringBootTest
@TestPropertySource(locations = "classpath:${test.config.env:application-local.properties}")
@TestMethodOrder(OrderAnnotation.class)
public class RunIntegrationTest {
  // All tests
}

What do I need to exec for running all tests from built jar on command line?

    java -jar build-with-class-test-and-junit-in-it.jar # are there more parameters?

Solution

I've got a solution to run springboot test in jar using junit4 and SpringRunner.

Creating Test Class

import org.junit.FixMethodOrder;
import org.junit.Test; // don't use org.junit.jupiter.api.test for this case  
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.junit.runners.MethodSorters;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.servlet.AutoConfigureMockMvc;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.context.TestPropertySource;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringRunner;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.MockMvc;

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class) // using SpringRunner instead of @ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)
@AutoConfigureMockMvc
@SpringBootTest
@TestPropertySource(locations = "classpath:application-${spring.profiles.active:local}.properties")
@FixMethodOrder(MethodSorters.NAME_ASCENDING)
public class RunIntegrationTest {

 
    @Autowired
    private MockMvc mockMvc;

    @Test
    // ... all integration test
    
    @Test
    // ... all integration test

}

creating file pom-test-jar.xml

That's all :)

Let's creating jar with test in it and run all test

# BUILD TEST JAR: 
mvn -f "pom-test-jar.xml" clean package -DskipTests

# RUN TEST INTEGRATION
export SPRING_PROFILES_ACTIVE=hom 
java  -jar target/myjar.jar br.com.package.test.RunIntegrationTest
unset SPRING_PROFILES_ACTIVE
