This is a new feature from Spring framework 4.2. Now you can use other JUnit's runners,like Parameterized or MockitoJUnitRunner but without losing spring test benefits. (with all the features you love with spring-test like spring Dependency Injection , Auto-rollback Transaction for test and etc).
In this article, a simple hello world level JUnit test case is provided with JUnit Parameterized runner, with spring-test support enabled.
0. What you need
- JDK 1.7 +
- Spring framework 4.2 + ( 4.2.1.RELEASE is used in this demo)
- Maven 3.2+ (This demo is a maven project, but maven is not necessary for enable Spring-test support in other JUnit runners)
1. Define pom.xml
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.shengwang.demo</groupId> <artifactId>spring-test-simple</artifactId> <version>1</version> <packaging>jar</packaging> <name>spring-test-simple</name> <url>http://maven.apache.org</url> <dependencies> <!-- Spring framework --> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>4.2.1.RELEASE</version> </dependency> <!-- Spring test --> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-test</artifactId> <version>4.2.1.RELEASE</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <!-- JUnit test --> <dependency> <groupId>junit</groupId> <artifactId>junit</artifactId> <version>4.11</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> </dependencies> <build> <plugins> <!-- Use Java 1.7 --> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.5.1</version> <configuration> <source>1.7</source> <target>1.7</target> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project>
The pom specifies 3 dependencies, spring-context, spring-test and junit. Also it specify the Java version to 1.7.
2. Define Java Class
There are 3 classes in this demo. First is HelloService.java, which is a Spring bean as test target.
package com.shengwang.demo; import org.springframework.stereotype.Service; @Service public class HelloService { public String sayHello(String name) { return "Hello " + name; } }
The second is JavaConfig.java, as Spring context configuration.
package com.shengwang.demo; import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; @Configuration @ComponentScan public class JavaConfig {}
The Last is the JUnit test case HelloServiceTest.java use Parameterized as runner.
package com.shengwang.demo; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collection; import org.junit.ClassRule; import org.junit.Rule; import org.junit.Test; import org.junit.runner.RunWith; import org.junit.runners.Parameterized; import org.junit.runners.Parameterized.Parameters; import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired; import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration; import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.rules.SpringClassRule; import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.rules.SpringMethodRule; @RunWith(Parameterized.class) @ContextConfiguration(classes=JavaConfig.class) // specify context config public class HelloServiceTest { // ------------------------------------------- // spring test support requirement from 4.2 // ------------------------------------------- @ClassRule public static final SpringClassRule SPRING_CLASS_RULE= new SpringClassRule(); @Rule public final SpringMethodRule springMethodRule = new SpringMethodRule(); // ------------------------------------------- // spring test support requirement over // ------------------------------------------- private String name; @Autowired HelloService service; public HelloServiceTest(String name) { this.name = name; } @Parameters public static Collection<String[]> data() { return Arrays.asList(new String[][] { {"Tom"},{"Jerry"} }); } @Test public void testSayHello() { service.sayHello(name); } }
The test case enable spring-test support by 3 steps:
- 1. Use @ContextConfiguration to config Spring TestContext .
- 2. Add a SpringClassRule static variable
- 3. Add a SpringMethodRule field variable
The project's hierarchy looks like below:
Now the test get all abilities from spring-test. The @Autowired dependency injection works perfectly.
actually this is just one post with valid information, that is really working... Thank you Sheng!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot. This is working.

ReplyDeleteIt works, but only with packages.
