Running POM files from earlier versions of DevOps Test Integrations and APIs

Running a Maven command

You must run the following Maven command if you want to update POM files generated from Test Integrations and APIs 9.2.1.1 or later.

To back up the existing POM file, find the new version from Test Virtualization Control Panel and update the version in the existing POM file.

The following example shows the Maven command to update the existing POM file named pom_tp52776.xml.

This command creates a backup of the file and updates the version in the pom_tp52776.xml from 1.920.0 to 1.921.1

Editing the existing POM file

For POM files generated from earlier versions of Test Integrations and APIs edit the earlier POM file by replacing the version number in the old POM file (for example, 1.911.1 for Test Virtualization Control Panel version 9.1.1.1) with the version number from Test Virtualization Control Panel 9.2.1 (for example, 1.921.0).

The following example shows a section of a new POM file generated from Test Integrations and APIs 9.2.1:

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.hcl.products.test.it</groupId>
            <artifactId>it-plugin-boot</artifactId>
            <version>1.921.0</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>com.hcl.products.test.it</groupId>
                <artifactId>it-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>1.921.0</version>

The following example shows a section of an existing POM file that was generated from Test Integrations and APIs 9.2.0:

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.hcl.products.test.it</groupId>
            <artifactId>it-plugin-boot</artifactId>
            <version>1.920.0</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>com.hcl.products.test.it</groupId>
                <artifactId>it-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>1.920.0</version>

Note the value of the version property (<version></version> in each of the POM files. To run the existing POM file with Test Integrations and APIs 9.2.1, you must edit the version of the existing POM file and change it from 1.920.0 to 1.921.0.

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.hcl.products.test.it</groupId>
            <artifactId>it-plugin-boot</artifactId>
            <version>1.920.0</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>com.hcl.products.test.it</groupId>

                        <artifactId>it-surefire-provider</artifactId>
