SHAFT_Engine: TestNG Archetype

This is a Maven Archetype for setting up a sample SHAFT_Engine + TestNG project.

Automated Version Synchronization

This repository includes an automated workflow that keeps all SHAFT Engine versions synchronized. When the SHAFT Engine version is updated in the archetype template, the workflow automatically:

• ✅ Detects version mismatches between the project version and SHAFT Engine version
• ✅ Creates a pull request with the necessary version updates
• ✅ Updates the main project version to match the latest SHAFT Engine version
• ✅ Synchronizes all archetype template files
• ✅ Maintains consistency across test reference files

The synchronization workflow runs on every push to the main branch when POM files are modified. When a version mismatch is detected, a pull request is automatically created for review and merging, ensuring that repository branch protection rules are respected.

Usage

To Generate a project just follow these simple steps:

1. Download the latest version of mvn
2. Add it to your PATH variable
3. Create a new directory for the project, and navigate to it.
4. Open a Terminal window in the target directory and execute the below command.

mvn archetype:generate "-DarchetypeGroupId=io.github.shafthq" "-DarchetypeArtifactId=testng-archetype" "-DarchetypeVersion=${archetype.version}" "-DinteractiveMode=false" "-DgroupId=io.github.shafthq" "-DartifactId=using_SHAFT_Engine"

NOTE 1: Replace ${archetype.version} with the latest SHAFT_Engine: TestNG Archetype version.
NOTE 2: Customize "-DgroupId=io.github.shafthq" and "-DartifactId=using_SHAFT_Engine" with the groupId and artifactId that you want to use for the new project.
