test fails during build - flex-pmd-ruleset

[TexMags]

Hi, I have followed the developer documentation for how to build the project, on step 7 it fails because the following tests are failing inside flex-pmd-ruleset:

Failed tests:
  testProcessViolatingFiles(com.adobe.ac.pmd.rules.unused.UnusedLocalVariableRuleTest)
  testBuildMessageName(com.adobe.ac.pmd.rules.core.EmptyRuleTest)
  testProcessViolatingFiles(com.adobe.ac.pmd.rules.naming.WronglyNamedVariableRuleTest)
  testProcessViolatingFiles(com.adobe.ac.pmd.rules.unused.UnusedPrivateMethodRuleTest)

Tests run: 219, Failures: 4, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] There are test failures.

I'm not sure how to fix these failures, any clues as what the problem may be? I ran "mvn package" from the flex-pmd-parent from the command line.

TIA,

Magnus

Did you check out trunk or a specific branch?

Can you try to invoke mvn install?

Xavier

[Xavier_Agnetti]

Both trunk and Rc3 branch are under continuous integration, and the build would be broken if any unittests were failing.

I would try to launch mvn install.

I checked out from the trunk, I assumed it's something in my environment. Funny thing is that I've tried to build it on two different machines and it fails with the same error on both machines.

mvn install also fails with the same set of tests. Do you build it with Java 1.5 or 1.6? I'm using 1.6, just trying to think of anything that may explain my build problems.

TIA,

Magnus

[Xavier_Agnetti · Accepted solution]

I indeed use 1.5 as a JVM.

Can you sync again, please?

Any differences using mvn install?

Xavier

[TexMags]

I was able to get much further using Java JDK 1.5.0_21. Perhaps it would be a good idea to farther down the line, try to move to 1.6 since 1.5 is nearing EOSL in October.

I am getting a different error because it can't download one of the plugins:

Downloading: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/adobe/ac/as3Ncss-maven-plugin/1.1/as3Ncss-maven-plugin-1.1.jar
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] A required plugin was not found: Plugin could not be found - check that the goal name is correct: Unable to downl
oad the artifact from any repository

Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

Then, install it using the command:
    mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.adobe.ac -DartifactId=as3Ncss-maven-plugin -Dversion=1.1 -Dpackaging=maven-pl
ugin -Dfile=/path/to/file

Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:
    mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=com.adobe.ac -DartifactId=as3Ncss-maven-plugin -Dversion=1.1 -Dpackaging=maven-plug
in -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]

Any thoughts on how I can get past this?

TIA,

Magnus

Try to resync against trunk, and should be good.

About Java 1.6, I will see what I can do.

Thanks, I was able to get a little further but ran into a different artifact issue when building the Flex PMD lib:

Downloading: http://fna-v2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/fna_m2_repository//com/adobe/flex/framework/datavisualization/3.2.0.
3958/datavisualization-3.2.0.3958-en_US.rb.swc
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.

Missing:
----------
1) com.adobe.flex.framework:datavisualization:swc:3.2.0.3958

  Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

Is it supposed to be in this repository?

TIA,

Magnus

[Xavier_Agnetti]

Getting there...

This swc is not opensource (was not in this version). So it can't be published in a public repository. You can find in your FB installation, and install manually in your local repository.

Thanks, I got past that. Unfortunately I am still having a problem comiling the PMD Flex Lib, I get these errors:

Any ideas?

Magnus,

Sorry, I did not see this one...

Did you resolve the issue?

Xavier

[TexMags]

I have not been able to resolve the issue. I'm sure it's something with my environment but I haven't been able to figure what. I have the same issue on two different machines with a different setup (XP vs Vista).

[TexMags]

I realized that the error I'm getting seems to be related to the thread "
missing artifact when trying to build". This thread can probably be closed.

[Guest]

TexMags, I solve this by copying "...   \FB Plugin\sdks\3.4.0\frameworks\libs\player\10\playerglobal.swc" to "...   \flexpmd\flex-pmd-flex-lib\target\classes\libraries\playerglobal.swc"

[m_eichstedt]

There are several dependencies to playerglobal in different versions. flexmojos-unittest-support-3.2.0 for example explicitly requires playerglobal version 9 - If you have the playerglobal version 9 in your repository, it will be downloaded and shadows the other one 😐

flex-pmd-ruleset-creator also crashes since the FileReference signature changed from 9 to 10.

Besides, the flex-framework dependency is declared twice in flex-pmd-flex-lib/pom.xml, so the exclusion block in the first declaration doesn't work.

Looking at the dependency tree explains a lot

But why and where is the playerglobal.swc copied to target/classes/libraries? -compiler.external-library-path is referencing that ambiguous library instead using a 'versioned' one from the repository.

[Xavier_Agnetti]

Ok. So against trunk, the project can be compiled against JRE 1.5 AND JRE 1.6.

FYI, there was a change in the order that a HashMap gets iterated.

Thanks for raising this.
