Test our Maven support with the Github Package Registry and improve our strongbox-web-integration-tests

[carlspring]

Task Description

We have already implemented support for the Maven layout via our Maven layout provider. At the moment, we have a bunch of pre-defined Maven proxies in the storage-common-proxies storage.

We need to check if our Maven support is compatible with Github's implementation of Maven registries. If there are bugs, we should collect, investigate and fix them.

Please, note: This task can only be picked up once sub-task for Maven in #1927 has been implemented.

Tasks

The following tasks will need to be carried out:

• Add a new test in the strongbox-web-integration-tests project that:
  • Creates a new proxy repository called storage-common-proxies:github-test-maven-registry which points to the new Maven registry (created in Setup Github Actions that deploy our hello-strongbox-* to the Github Package Registry #1927) during the tests.
  • Add the storage-common-proxies:github-test-maven-registry to the group repository for Maven called storage-common-proxies:group-common-proxies.
  • Test resolving artifacts via the Strongbox proxy above (storage-common-proxies:github-test-maven-registry). (This should be our corresponding artifact from the strongbox-examples project).
  • Test resolving artifacts via group repository (this should be our corresponding artifact from the strongbox-examples project).
• Add a new test that:
  • Creates a proxy repository to a repository on Bintray (in the storage-common-proxies` storage).
  • Add this proxy repository to the storage-common-proxies:group-common-proxies.
  • Test resolving an artifact from Bintray using the proxy repository.
  • Test resolving an artifact from Bintray using the group repository.

Task Relationships

This task:

• Is a sub-task of: Improve our tests in the strongbox-web-integration-tests #1931
• Depends on: Setup Github Actions that deploy our hello-strongbox-* to the Github Package Registry #1927
