Properties file

Before running the AWS Security Token Service JUnit tests, you must define values in the config.properties file located in the resources folder. This file contains values that are required to execute the JUnit tests. For example, you define a the roleArn value used in the tests. If you do not define all values, the JUnit tests fail.

Define these values to successfully run the JUnit tests:

  • roleArn - The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the role to assume.
  • accessKeyId – The identifier of an access key.
  • roleSessionName – An identifier for the assumed role session.
