[Testbox 6.3.2] Function Runremote Does Not Support opt_run as an Argument

Communities TestBox BDD
1

This is super strange. I started receiving an exception error on my ACF 2021 app whenever I try to execute specific tests from within the Testbox browser. The full test suite runs fine. This error occurs only when trying to run individual tests after clicking on them.

I tried rolling back to Testbox 5 and I still get the same error. Has anyone else run into this issue before?

The test extends from coldbox.system.testing.BaseTestCase and I am running ColdBox 7.4.1.

Sample URL:
http://127.0.0.1:60830/tests/specs/unit/LicenseQTest.cfc?method=runRemote&directory=&testSpecs=83DF08665F4356EEDAA9A6551CDFB586E7D96AC3C8B2490FE4EAC531F470C118&testBundles=tests%2Especs%2Eunit%2ELicenseQTest&opt_run=true&coverageEnabled=false

Output:
Function runRemote does not support opt_run as an argument in D:/myproject/tests/specs/unit/LicenseQTest.cfc

Ugh, this is another sarcastic “Thanks Adobe” moment. As it turns out, in Adobe ColdFusion 2021 update 20, they added a new JVM argument and defaulted the value so it will break Testbox:

  • -Dcoldfusion.runtime.remotemethod.matchArguments=true/false. The flag is set to true by default, which enforces strict argument matching. If a remote method expects certain parameters, those arguments must be explicitly declared using the cfargument tag or defined directly in the function signature. For example, if a remote function is defined to accept two arguments, it must only receive those two. Passing more than the declared number (for example, 10) will result in an error. This change ensures stricter method integrity and a better debugging experience. This behavior change applies only to remote CFC methods.

Here’s the fix:

If you’re using Commandbox, update the JVM arguments in your server.json file to include:

"jvm":{
        "args":[
            "-Dcoldfusion.runtime.remotemethod.matchArguments=false"
        ]
    }

yeah, it feels like Adobe threw the baby out with the bathwater there. My understanding is that the exact argument matching also doesn’t apply just to actual remote calls but ANY call to a remote method, even an internal call.
