Generating a QA Automation Project

Assuming JDK 11 and Maven 3.6+ are already installed, on Windows it would be:

mvn --batch-mode archetype:generate ^
  -Dmaven.wagon.http.ssl.insecure=true ^
  -DarchetypeGroupId=dev.aherscu.qa ^
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=qa-testing-archetype ^
  -DarchetypeVersion=LATEST ^
  -DgroupId=com.acme ^
  -DartifactId=testing ^
  -Dversion=0.0.1-SNAPSHOT ^
  -Dpackage=com.acme.testing

This will generate a fully configured QA Automation project in testing directory.

The generated project inherits from QA Testing Parent and contains few exemplary tests, with all required dependencies for TestNG, JGiven BDD-reporting, Selenium, Appium, SouceLabs integration, and many other utility libraries which I found useful across a dozen of projects.

All above pieces are already integrated, all you have to do is:

1. derive your automation classes from specific base class
2. define your own configuration and environments
3. optionally, add support modules; currently one of:
   • QA JGiven REST
   • QA JGiven SSH
   • QA JGiven JDBC
   • QA JGiven ElasticSearch
   • QA JGiven RabbitMQ
   • or prepare one of yours :)

See QA Testing Example, for more examples.
