    Description

      Given

      ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class, "test.jar")
      ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class, "test.ear")
      ShrinkWrap.create(JavaArchive.class, "test.ear")
      ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class, "test")
      

      When

      User is creating a Archive

      Then

      The known Archive types should match given archive name extensions.

      Expected

      Warning; Creating an archive of type WebArchive but given name does not match to predefined name extension; .war

      Actual

      Nothing.. waits for Arquillian to fail.

      This is a very common and annoying user error. The Container/Server will 99% of the time rely on the deployment file extension to determine what type of archive this is. While our 'WebArchive' Archive types are only convenience views on how to add data to correct locations within the target archive and can be any type; we choose to validate this runtime in Arquillian core to warn that 'hey, this is probably not what you intended to do' to hopefully save users from a few hours pointless debugging.

      See https://github.com/arquillian/arquillian-core/blob/master/container/spi/src/main/java/org/jboss/arquillian/container/spi/client/deployment/Validate.java#L45 for our extension type mapping.

      Our validation logic is; if extension does not match, but Archive is of Type then warn.

      That allows users to use Custom views without warning.
