How to use jubula's OS execute externalcommand on ubuntu

Question

I'm working with jubula on ubuntu and I have some issue running the os_execute_externalcommand function.

Directory : /home/ramzi/desktop/test

Executable: jtest.jar

arguments : java -jar jtest.jar

argument_seplit : #

ps: -the jtest.jar file is working from terminal and it's executable from its directory. -the function works fine on windows.

Answer 1

Use the command's parameters like this:

Executable: java
Arguments : -jar jtest.jar

This should work if 'java' was added to the PATH of the OS.

I believe the command works for you on Windows because you associated the '.jar' file extension to be opened by an installed JVM (you've made them De-facto executables)
