Add WebServices Galleon layer

In  webservices wf-galleon

Overview

The goal of this feature is to supply a Galleon layer which will be responsible for providing the webservices subsystem.

The following is a configuration example of the WildFly bootable JAR Maven plugin to provision a server with the webserviecs layer and the cloud-server layer, which brings the webseviecs functionatily to support Jakarta xml web service deployment.

Requirements

WildFly Galleon is the tool to slim the WidlFly server installation. To better support this tool and provide user with wide variety of server provisioning selection, webservices layer should be created to provide Jakarta xml web service support. The webserviecs galloen layer spec should be created, and it should depend on ejb3 layer to support EJB(type) WebService and messaging-activemq layer to support jms transport.

Hard Requirements

  • The Galleon layer must provide a webservice subsystem

  • The Galleon layer must work with other base layer

  • The Galleon layer must support Jakarta xml web service deployment propertly

Test Plan

The test coverage of the Galleon layer added by this proposal is divided into two groups:

  1. Testing the Galleon layer provisioning. This testing is done by LayersTestCase. The testsuite will be modified to add a new server provisioned with this layer in isolation and with this layer combined with all the layers. For each kind of provisioning, this test does the following:

    1. Verifies the provisioned modules are the expected ones.

    2. Verifies the provisioned server starts successfully.

  2. Execution of existing WildFly tests related to webservice. For these we will reuse the existing tests available in the WildFly test suite and execute them on a server installation provisioned with this layer. A new profile and surefire execution will be added to the WildFly testsuite/integration/ws package. This new surefire execution will run the existing tests available on the WildFly test suite against a server installation created from the combination of the webservices with cloud-server , legacy-security and ejb Galleon layer

Community documentation will be added to sections about WildFly Galleon layers.
