I normally use JTest Parasoft as a plugin in Eclipse.
But now, I need to integrate JTest in Hudson, at a way that in the Post-build, JTest should run its tests over a Maven project.
So my questions are :
How to integrate JTest in Hudson? I found a plugin CppTest by Parasoft and not JTest...
How to specify the tests which should be run on the project? For example, configure JTest to run "Find unused code" which is included in "Static Analysis"...?
Thank you a lot.
Jtest has fully functional command line interface so generally integration should not be a problem.
As for your questions:
1) there is a Jtest plugin for Maven, so you will be able to trigger your post-build action easily. It's thoroughly described on http://build.parasoft.com .
2) you can specify the Test Configuration of your choice by using -Dparasoft.config option (i.e.: mvn parasoft:jtest -Dparasoft.config="user://Unused Code").
You can find all the parameters which can be used with parasoft:jtest goal described here: http://build.parasoft.com/docs/maven-parasoft-plugin/jtest-mojo.html .
We have integrated Jenkins with Jtest (Linux)
Downloaded the Jtest installers and installed in Jenkins server (in slaves too if you have slaves attached)
Env variables for same has been set (JTEST_HOME)
And now without any entries for Jtest in Pom or build.xml files, we
can directly call the jtestcli commands either in invoke shell
section or use Jtest goals with maven too.
We need to make sure that we have maven-parasoft-plugin 3.12 and Jtest dependencies available in maven repo (for maven projects) and we should have parasoft-ant-3.12.jar available which we need to place in ant lib folder (for ant projects).

I have a web (online calculator for an example) which developed by my fellow tem members. Now they want to deploy in PCF using manifests.
Languages used : python, php and javascipt.
I gone through the docs about pcf with manifest.yml
In that I don't have any idea about services and env.
What is that services and how can I find the services for the above project and also how can I find the environment variables?
And tell whether these fields are mandatory to run the project in PCF.
To your original question:
What is that services and how can I find the services for the above project and also how can I find the environment variables? And tell whether these fields are mandatory to run the project in pcf.
Does your app require any services to run? Services would be things like a database or message queue. If it does not, then you do not need to specify any services in your manifest. They are optional.
Similarly, for environment variables, you would only need to set them if they are required to configure your application. Otherwise, just omit that section of your manifest.
At the end of the day, you should talk with whomever developed the application or read the documentation they produce as that's the only way to know what services or environment variables are required.
In regards to your additional questions:
1)And also I have one more query...like in our application we used python ok! In that we use lots of pacakages say pandas,numpy,scipy and so on...how can I import all the libraries into the PCF ??? Buildpacks will contain version only right?
Correct. The buildpack only includes Python itself. Your dependencies either need to be installed or vendored. To do this for Python, you need to include a requirements.txt file. The buildpack will see this and use pip to install your dependencies.
See the docs for the Python buildpack which explains this in more detail: https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/buildpacks/python/index.html#pushing_apps
2)And also tell me what will be the path for my app name if Java I can enclose jar files
For Java apps, you need to push compiled code. That means, you need to run something like mvn package or gradle assemble to build your executable JAR or WAR file. This should be a self contained file that has everything necessary to run your app, compile class files, config, and all dependent JARs.
You then run cf push -p path/to/my-app.jar (or WAR, whatever you build). The cf cli will take everything in the app and push it up to Cloud Foundry where the Java buildpack will install things like the JVM and possibly Tomcat so you app can run.
what should I do for application devloped using pyhton , JavaScript and php....
You can use multiple buildpacks. See the instructions here.
https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/buildpacks/use-multiple-buildpacks.html
In short, you can have as many buildpacks as you want. The last buildpack in the list is special because that is the buildpack which will set the start command for your application (although you can override this with cf push -c if necessary). The non-final buildpacks will run and simply install dependencies.
3) we were using postgresql how can I use this in pcf with my app
Run cf marketplace and see if there are any Postgres providers in your Marketplace. If there is one, you can just do a cf create-service <provider> <plan> <service name> and the foundation will create a database for you to use. You would then run a cf bind-service <app> <service name> to bind the service you create to your app. This will generate credentials and pass them along to your app when it starts. You app can then read the credentials out of VCAP_SERVICES and use them to make connections to the database.

I need to configure Hudson using SVN and ANT . I need to deploy the war file at my server. Please navigate to the proper help. As I could not find any proper help for this. Do I need to use any plug-in? Or I can do with ANT script? Please suggest a way.
Create a new free-style software project job.
Configure that job.
Under Source Code Management section, select Subversion and configure your repositories and local workspace
Under Build section, select Add build step and select Invoke Ant
If your SVN checkout has build.xml in the root with default target, you don't need anything else. Else configure the Ant targets and the location of the build file
(Optional) Archive the artifacts of the build with Archive the artifacts under Post-build Actions, in your case probably **/*.war
Use Deploy Plugin to publish the war file to remote server.
I am setting up Jenkins to replace our current TeamCity CI build.
I have created a free-style software project so that I can execute a shell script.
The Shell script runs the mvn command.
But the build fails complaining that the 'mvn' command cannot be found.
I have figured that this is because Jenkins is running the build in a different shell, which does not have Maven on it's path.
My question is; how do I add the path so 'mvn' is found in my Shell script? I've looked around but can't spot where the right place might be.
Thanks for your time.
I solved this by exporting and setting the Path in the Jenkins Job configuration where you can enter shell commands. So I set the environments variable before I execute my Shell script, works a treat.
Some possible solutions:
You can call maven with an absolute path
You configure a global environment variable in the jenkins system settings with the absolute path to your maven instance, and use this in your script call (if you use the inline shell script, I don't know if those are substituted to a called script, you have to test)
You use a maven project and configure your maven instance in the jenkins system settings
ps.: Usually /bin/sh is chosen from Jenkins, if you want to switch to eg. bash, you can configure this in the jenkins system settings, in case you want to configure global environment variables.
You can use envInject plugin. It's very powerful.
I use it to install rbenv. And it can inject environment variables into your current job.
Another option to Dags suggestion is that if you're only using a single version of maven, on each slave server you could do either;
* add PATH=${PATH}:
* symlink mvn into /usr/bin with; sudo ln -s /usr/bin
I'm not at a Jenkins box at the moment, but I can find some more detailed examples if you'd like.
Jenkins is using sh by default and not bash.
This is my first time defining a jenkins maven job, and I also followed soem regular maven instructions (for running from command line...), and tried to update ~/.bashrc with M2_HOME, M2, PATH, but it didn't work because jenkins used sh and not bash. Then I found out that there is a simpler and better way built into jenkins.
After installing maven, I was supposed to configure my maven installation in jenkins.
To configure your maven installation in Jenkins:
login to jenkins web console
click Manage Jenkins --> Configure System
Under Maven, click the "Maven Installations..." button
a. Give it some name
b. and under MVN_HOME set the path to where you installed maven, for example "/usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-3.0.5"
Click Save button
Define a job with maven target
edit your job
Click "Add build step"
on Maven Version, enter the name you gave your maven installation (step #4 above)
set some goal like clean install
It is possible to take the source code directly from a svn repository and analyze it with sonar? Or configure sonar just to run a Checkstyle or pmd plugin for certain sources?
I need to do this on non-maven projects.
Sonar can run without maven entirely. Now there's sonar-runner
Yes, you just need to write a maven or ant script to check out the latest from SVN first, then run the sonar:sonar command.
It looks like Sonar forces you to create a pom.xml file and install maven2, even for a non-mavenized project: http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONAR/Analyzing+Source+Code
(fyi - Sonar is dead easy with a mavenized project, but in any setup the key will be in getting in the habit of looking at and using the results of Sonar to improve development. That's the hard part.)
I am new in Hudson.
I would like to execute a 'sourcecodeanalyzer' command in Hudson as Post-build Actions to generate an html report. Please let me know is this at all possible, if yes let me know the Hudson configuration steps to execute the command.
Your earliest response in this regard will be extremely helpful.
Thanks in advance.
Yes, it is almost certainly possible.
You will need to configure the Hudson project to have either a post-build action or a build step that runs your source code analyzer.
You've not stated in your question precisely which analyzer - it may be that Hudson already has a plug-in installed for it, in which case it may be listed on the Config page for the project at the bottom under Post-build Actions.
If not, next check to see if there's a plug-in available for the analyzer that hasn't been installed. From the main Hudson page select Manage Hudson, then Manage Plugins, and choose the Available tab. If there is a plug-in available it's definitely a good idea to use it as they are generally very well integrated with Hudson itself.
As a last resort you'll have to configure a build step to run the analyzer. Configure the project, then choose "Add build step". The drop-down that appears depends on your environment (Windows or Linux) but should include the ability to run a shell command or batch file. You can configure your analyzer there.
(If you're building Windows Visual Studio applications, a more flexible way that I've used is to use the MSBuild plug-in for builds, and have an MSBuild script that builds the application and then runs analysis tools. This can automate pretty much everything: mine builds the application, builds an acceptance test database, runs the acceptance tests and copies the result HTML to a page linked from the project.)
You could create a new job with a "Execute Shell" build step. Type in the command you wish to run in the text box. Then all you have to do is trigger this job by selecting:
"Build after other projects are built"
And select the trigger job from the list.
Hope this helps!
As a follow up to Jeremy's post. If you don't see the ability to add post build steps, you might work with maven jobs. In that case you need the Hudson M2 Extra Steps Plugin. This will give you pre and post build steps.
I use the 'Post build task' plugin to delete some resources after a build. You could call any shell script or command lines. If you want you could make the call depends on some logging output.
there is one best way to solve this:
Upgrade to Fortify SCA 2.6.x (as of writing, latest version is 2.6.5).
Download the Fortify Maven Plugin version 2.6 from https://customerportal.fortify.com and install it into your Hudson server's Maven repository.
Update your project's pom to carry out the Fortify scan. There is an example provided with the Maven plugin.
Currently , I am experiment with sonar plug in. It looks great check the details here
