Development Environment
Maven
Maven 3 is is used in a pretty standard way - just look at pom.xml for details
Eclipse
The project can be imported to eclipse - using the m2eclipse plugin is recommended
Testenvironment
There is a JUnit 4 Testsuite for the Mediawiki-Japi library that accesses some ExampleWikis for the tests.
A login attempt is part of most of the tests - you'll need credentials at http://www.mediawiki.org to run these tests successfully. You might want to create an account at https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&type=signup
Credentials for the test example Mediawikis
The credentials for the test example Mediawikis are fetched from ini files in the .mediawiki-api subdirectory of your home directory. E.g. if your username is bob and the id of the Mediawiki is "mediawiki_org" then you'll find the ini file at $HOME/.mediawiki-api/bob_mediawiki_org.ini.
If the credentials ini files do not exist yet they are created interactively during the test run.
Example for a credential ini file
