Hands-On Cloud-Native Applications with Java and Quarkus

Executing integration tests against the native executable

Interestingly, native executable code can be tested. When you generated the sample project, a Native<project>Test class name was included in the test folder. This class differs from Java tests as it's annotated with the @NativeImageTest annotation.

As a result of the Maven failsafe plugin configuration, all rests ending in *IT or annotated with @NativeImageTest will be run against the native executable.

In terms of code, there's no need to make any changes as it uses inheritance to execute the native executable tests from our SimpleRestTest class:

@NativeImageTestpublic class NativeSimpleRestIT extends SimpleRestTest {    // Execute the same tests but in native mode.}

The verify goal ...
