Maven Notes

Maven is a build automation tool used primarily for Java projects. It handles tasks like building projects, managing dependencies, generating reports, and integrating with version control. Maven uses a POM (Project Object Model) file to manage a project's build configuration and dependencies. It searches various repositories, including local, central, and remote, to resolve dependencies for a project.

What is Maven?

Maven is a powerful project management tool that is based on POM (project object
model). It is used for projects build, dependency and documentation. It simplifies the
build process like ANT. But it is too much advanced than ANT.
In short terms we can tell maven is a tool that can be used for building and managing
any Java-based project. maven make the day-to-day work of Java developers easier
and generally help with the comprehension of any Java-based project.

What maven does?

Maven does a lot of helpful task like


1. We can easily build a project using maven.
2. We can add jars and other dependencies of the project easily using the help of
maven.
3. Maven provides project information (log document, dependency list, unit test
reports etc.)
4. Maven is very helpful for a project while updating central repository of JARs and
other dependencies.
5. With the help of Maven we can build any number of projects into output types
like the JAR, WAR etc without doing any scripting.
6. Using maven we can easily integrate our project with source control system (such
as Subversion or Git).
How maven works?

The sample of pom.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" 

   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0

http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

          

         <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

         <groupId> com.project.loggerapi </groupId>

         <artifactId>LoggerApi</artifactId>
         <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>

           

       <!-- Add typical dependencies for a web application -->

       <dependencies>

               <dependency>

                       <groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>

                       <artifactId>log4j-api</artifactId>

                       <version>2.11.0</version>

                 </dependency>

       </dependencies>

     

   </project>

Elements used for Creating pom.xml file


1. project- It is the root element of the pom.xml file.
2. modelVersion- modelversion means what version of the POM model you
are using. Use version 4.0.0 for maven 2 and maven 3.
3. groupId- groupId means the id for the project group. It is unique and Most
often you will use a group ID which is similar to the root Java package
name of the project like we used the groupId com.project.loggerapi.
4. artifactId- artifactId used to give name of the project you are building.in our
example name of our project is LoggerApi.
5. version- version element contains the version number of the project. If
your project has been released in different versions then it is useful to give
version of your project.
Other Elements of Pom.xml file
1. dependencies- dependencies element is used to defines a list of
dependency of project.
2. dependency- dependency defines a dependency and used inside
dependencies tag. Each dependency is described by its groupId, artifactId
and version.
3. name- this element is used to give name to our maven project.
4. scope- this element used to define scope for this maven project that can
be compile, runtime, test, provided system etc.
5. packaging- packaging element is used to packaging our project to output
types like JAR, WAR etc.

Maven Repository

Maven repositories are directories of packaged JAR files with some metadata.
The metadata are POM files related to the projects each packaged JAR file
belongs to, including what external dependencies each packaged JAR has.
This metadata enables Maven to download dependencies of your
dependencies recursively until all dependencies are download and put into
your local machine.
Maven has three types of repository :
1. Local repository
2. Central repository
3. Remote repository
Maven searches for dependencies in this repositories. First maven searches
in Local repository then Central repository then Remote repository if Remote
repository specified in the POM.

1. Local repository- A local repository is a directory on the machine of


developer. This repository contains all the dependencies Maven downloads
/ tester. Maven only needs to download the dependencies once, even if
multiple projects depends on them (e.g. ODBC).
By default, maven local repository is user_home/m2 directory.
example – C:\Users\ashok\.m2
2. Central repository- The central Maven repository is created Maven
community. Maven looks in this central repository for any dependencies
needed but not found in your local repository. Maven then downloads these
dependencies into your local repository.
3. Remote repository- remote repository is a repository on a web server
from which Maven can download dependencies.it often used for hosting
projects internal to organization. Maven then downloads these
dependencies into your local repository.
Steps to create Maven Project:
Step 1) In Eclipse IDE, create a new project by selecting File | New
Step 2) On the New dialog, select Maven | Maven Project and click Next

Step 3) On the New Maven Project dialog click Next


Step 4) Click on Add archtype

Step 5) Enter in Group Id: and Artifact Id: and click finish

Step 6) Eclipse created project MavenGroupId with following structure:

Step 7). Select pom.xml from Project Explorer..


 
pom.xml file will Open in Editor section

Step 8). Add dependicy to POM.xml file like below


<!--
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.seleniumhq.selenium/selenium-java
-->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
<artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId>
<version>3.141.5</version>
</dependency>
Step 9). Now create a package with as shown below under src/test/java
Step 10). Create new class as shown below under above package
Step 11). Add below code
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class TestNgExample {

private WebDriver driver;


@Test
public void testEasy() {
driver.get("https://google.com/");
String title = driver.getTitle();
Assert.assertTrue(title.contains("google"));
}
@BeforeTest
public void beforeTest() {
driver = new ChromeBrowser();
}
@AfterTest
public void afterTest() {
driver.quit();
}

Step 12). Open POM.xml file and see that no Dependencies added in
pom.xml file
Step 15). Observe no Dependencies are added
