Hello folks , I'm testing Rest API , using rest-assured . maven , cucumber , and as a programming language I use JAVA, so I'm facing an issue , to run my some test in production environment,so I have properties file , where I store the URL for QA environment , and I have properties reader method , which reads from properties, so now I need to add URL of production , and execute both QA & prod , please help if u have any ideas to solve this issue , I've done my research in Stack overflow, couldn't find anything useful, found some solutions but I didn't get at all , because of lack of experience Thanks in advance
If I understand your problem correctly, this solution will be similar to what I did for one of my previous teams. You will need to create a custom property in Maven, like this one:
<properties>
<myEnvironment>${myEnv}</myEnvironment>
</properties>
Then, you will need to create the properties containing the URLs in the properties file:
QA=http://www.yourQAEnvURL.com
PROD=http://www.yourProdEnvURL.com
Lastly, you will need to pass the value using Maven (along with your other arguments):
mvn test ... -DmyEnvironment=QA
Your test application will need to consume this argument to look up the appropriate URL from the properties file in order to be able to test the correct environment.
