Run Integration Tests with a Janssen Server VM#

The procedures for running the Janssen integration test suite against an installed Janssen Server.

Component Setup#

Instructions in this guide can be used if Janssen Server is installed on a VM. Developers can use a virtualization software (like VMWare) or use LxD containers to create VM on developer workstation or use a remote cloud VM.

Component Diagram

OS platform for Developer Workstation

Steps in this guide are applicable to any OS platform a Developer workstation may have. Example commands given in this guide are for Ubuntu Linux based workstation.

Install Janssen Server#

Install the Janssen server using one of the methods described in the VM installation guide. Note the points below when following installation instructions.

  • Make a note of the host name that you assign to the Janssen server during the installation. For this guide, the Janssen hostname would be janssen.op.io
  • Choose to install with test data load. This can be achieved by using the -t switch when invoking the setup script from installation instructions.

Use the VM installation guide for the complete set of instructions.

Once the installation is complete, check if the .well-known end-points of the Janssen server from the browser. A successful response will ascertain that the The Janssen server running inside the local VM is healthy and also accessible from the developer's machine.

Note

Based on developer setup it may be necessary to add appropriate IP-HOST mapping to the developer workstation. For instance, on a Linux-based developer workstation, this means adding a mapping to /etc/hosts file. Make sure that VM's IP is mapped to a FQDN like janssen.op.io. Refering to VM with localhost or just IP will not work.

URI for OpenID configuration .well-known endpoint:

https://janssen.op.io/jans-auth/.well-known/openid-configuration

The response received should be JSON formatted Janssen configuration details, similar to those below.

Setup The Certificates#

To run the tests against the installed Janssen Server, the workstation JRE needs to have the appropriate certificate installed. Update cacerts using the steps below:

  • extract certificate for Janssen server with name janssen.op.io

    On Developer Workstation
    openssl s_client -connect test.local.jans.io:443 2>&1 |sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' > /tmp/httpd.crt
    this command takes a few seconds to return.

  • Update cacerts of your JRE which is being used by the code workspace. For example,
    /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-amazon-corretto. When running the command below, it will prompt for cert store password. Provide the correct password. The default password is changeit. 

    keytool -import -alias janssen.op.io -keystore /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-amazon-corretto/lib/security/cacerts -file /tmp/httpd.crt

Configure developer workspace#

Now that we have Janssen Server running in a VM and it is accessible from the developer workstation as well, we will create and configure the code base on the developer workspace to run integration tests.

Get Janssen server code from Janssen GitHub repository. Note the path to this location, we will refer to it as source-base.

Janssen Server is composed of multiple modules. For example source-base/jans-auth-server, source-base/jans-link etc.

Each module has its own set of tests. Below are the instructions for configuring each module for tests.

What is a Profile directory?

  • To run integration tests, the developer workspace needs to know details about he Janssen Server agaist which the tests are to be run.
  • Janssen Server workspace holds this information in source-base/module/sub-module/profiles directory.
  • The profiles directory can contain one or more sub-directories, each representing a profile(i.e a target Janssen Server). These profile directories are used to hold files that contain important information required to run tests.
  • Developers can create one or more profiles and use them to run tests against different Janssen Servers.
  • This guide uses Janssen Server hostname, janssen.op.io, as profile name.

Configuring the jans-auth-server module#

Configuring jans-auth-server module involves setting up profiles for client, server and agama sub-modules.

Follow the steps below to configure the profile for the client and server sub-modules.

  1. Move to the module directory 
     cd source-base/jans-auth-server

  2. As a precautionary measure, let's first remove any old profile artifacts from the jans-auth-server workspace. 

    rm -rf ./jans-auth
rm -rf ./client/profiles/janssen.op.io
rm -rf ./server/profiles/janssen.op.io
rm -rf ./agama/engine/profiles/janssen.op.io

  3. Since Janssen Server has been installed with test data, the installer also created the profile files required to run the test. These files are kept on the VM under /opt/jans/jans-setup/output/test/jans-auth directory. Copy over jans-auth directory from Janssen Server VM to source-base/jans-auth-server on developer workstation.

  4. Create new profile directories. 
    mkdir -p ./client/profiles/janssen.op.io
mkdir -p ./server/profiles/janssen.op.io
mkdir -p ./agama/engine/profiles/janssen.op.io
  5. Copy the contents of jans-auth directory into the respective sub-module's janssen.op.io profile directory 
    cp ./jans-auth/client/* ./client/profiles/janssen.op.io
cp ./jans-auth/server/* ./server/profiles/janssen.op.io
cp ./jans-auth/config-agama-test.properties ./agama/engine/profiles/janssen.op.io/config-agama-test.properties
  6. Copy keystore file profiles/default/client_keystore.p12 from default profile directory to the janssen.op.io profile directory 
    cp -f ./client/profiles/default/client_keystore.p12 ./client/profiles/janssen.op.io
cp -f ./server/profiles/default/client_keystore.p12 ./server/profiles/janssen.op.io

Running The Tests#

Each module in Janssen Server has its tests that have to be executed separately. For example, to run integration tests for jans-auth-server module, run the following maven command at the directory level:

mvn -Dcfg=janssen.op.io test

Configuring the jans-core module#

This module does not require a profile setup. It can be built with below maven command.

mvn clean compile install

This module does not require a profile setup. It can be built with the below maven command.

mvn clean compile install

Configuring the jans-orm module#

This module does not require a profile setup. It can be built with the below maven command.

mvn clean compile install

Configuring the agama module#

This module does not require a profile setup. It can be built with the below maven command.

mvn clean compile install

Configuring the SCIM module#

This module does not require a profile setup. It can be built with the below maven command.

Profile setup for client and server modules#

Many Janssen Server modules and sub-modules use test configuration stored in a directory named profile. The profile directory contains files that hold important information required to run tests. Developers can create one or more profiles and use them to run tests against different Janssen Servers.

Since Janssen Server has been installed with test data, the installer also created the profile files required to run the test. For SCIM/client module, these files are kept on the VM under /opt/jans/jans-setup/output/test/scim-client directory. Copy over this directory to any location on the developer workstation.

Follow the steps below to configure the profile for the client module. The same steps should be followed for setting up a profile for the server module.

  1. Under jans-scim/client/profiles directory, create a new directory and name it janssen.op.io
  2. Copy the contents of scim-client/client directory into the newly created janssen.op.io directory

Post this, remove the scim-client directory.

Now as the profile is setup, to build the jans-scim module and run tests, use the command below:

mvn -Dcfg=janssen.op.io test
