Below is a code snippet to easily test a spring annotated web controller
public abstract class BaseWebControllerTest { @Autowired
protected ApplicationContext context;
protected MockHttpServletRequest request;
protected MockHttpServletResponse response;
protected HandlerAdapter handlerAdapter;
public void before() {
handlerAdapter = context.getBean(HandlerAdapter.class);
}
void handle(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
final HandlerMapping handlerMapping = context.getBean(HandlerMapping.class);
final HandlerExecutionChain handler = handlerMapping.getHandler(request);
assertNotNull("No handler found for request, check you request mapping", handler);
final Object controller = handler.getHandler();
final HandlerInterceptor[] interceptors = handlerMapping.getHandler(request).getInterceptors();
for (HandlerInterceptor interceptor : interceptors) {
final boolean carryOn = interceptor.preHandle(request, response, controller);
if (!carryOn) {
return;
}
}
handlerAdapter.handle(request, response, controller);
}
}
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration("/spring/test-app-config.xml")public class MyControllerTest extends BaseWebControllerTest{ MyController controller;
@Before
public void before() {
super.before();
controller = context.getBean(MyController.class);
}
@Test
public void testGetRestRequest() throws Exception {
request = new MockHttpServletRequest();
response = new MockHttpServletResponse();
request.setContentType("application/json");
request.setMethod("GET");
request.setRequestURI("/rule/"+id);
handle(request, response);
String result =response.getContentAsString();
logger.info("RESULT : "+result);
//assert json response is right.
}
}
