How to use Shrinkwrap MavenDependencyResolver

If you use Maven to build your application and you want to test it with Arquillian, Be sure that you will be looking for a way to include some of your libraries (artifact) from Maven into your archive file (war, ear...).

In this article we show you how to use the Shrinkwrap MavenDependencyResolver to read artifact from pom file using the maven setting file.

For this purpose you just need to add your maven setting file in a folder mvn_settings under src/test/ressources and add this entry in your @Deployment method !

.addAsLibraries(DependencyResolvers.use(MavenDependencyResolver.class)
               .configureFrom("src/test/resources/mvn_settings/settings.xml")
               .artifact("GROUPID:ARTIFACTID:TYPE:VERSION")
               .resolveAs(GenericArchive.class))
