I have a bit of trouble with this.
I'm trying to test the web layer of my Spring boot app (with JUnit5).
I'm using the @WebMvcTest(NoteController::class)
to allow me to autowire MockMvc
in order to mock requests.
But I get the below error :
kotlin.UninitializedPropertyAccessException: lateinit property mvc has not been initialized
NoteControllerTest
import org.hamcrest.Matchers.`is`
import org.junit.Test
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.ExtendWith

@WebMvcTest(NoteController::class)
class NoteControllerTest {
@Autowired
private lateinit var mvc: MockMvc
@Test
fun should_create_a_note() {
mvc.perform(
post("/notes"))
.andExpect(status().isCreated)
.andExpect(content().contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8))
.andExpect(jsonPath("$.content", `is`("my content")))
}
}

val fetchNote: FetchNote) {
@GetMapping
fun getAllNotes(): ResponseEntity<List<Note>> {
return ResponseEntity(fetchNote.all().toResource(), HttpStatus.OK)
}
@PostMapping
fun createNote(): ResponseEntity<Note> {
val note = createNote.with("my content").toResource()
return ResponseEntity.created(URI("")).body(note)
}
}

@ExtendWith(SpringExtension::class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = RANDOM_PORT)
class SmartNotesApplicationTest {
@Test
fun contextLoad() {
}
}
Thanks in advance.
thanks for the answers, I put the working answer in Java with Spring Boot 2.2.6:
AuthorController.class
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.*;
@RestController
@RequestMapping(path = "/authors")
public class AuthorController {
@GetMapping("/health")
public boolean healthcheck() {
return true;
}
}
AuthorControllerIT.class
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.test.autoconfigure.web.servlet.AutoConfigureMockMvc;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.MockMvc;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.request.MockMvcRequestBuilders;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultHandlers;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers;
@SpringBootTest
@AutoConfigureMockMvc
class AuthorControllerIT {
@Autowired
private MockMvc mockMvc;
@Test
public void test_web_layer() throws Exception {
mockMvc.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders.get("/authors/health"))
.andDo(MockMvcResultHandlers.print())
.andExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.status().isOk())
.andExpect(MockMvcResultMatchers.content().string("true"));
}
}
Note :
You can use @WebMvcTest(AuthorController.class)
instead of @SpringBootTest
+ AutoConfigureMockMvc
With this annotation, it will only load the web layer. If you have dependencies in your controller (services, repositories...) you must use :
@MockBean
private MyService service;
