Prior to this commit, any attempt to include a bean of type
ServletServerContainerFactoryBean in the WebApplicationContext for an
integration test class annotated with @WebAppConfiguration in
conjunction the Spring TestContext Framework (TCF) would have resulted
in an IllegalStateException stating that "A ServletContext is required
to access the javax.websocket.server.ServerContainer instance."
In such scenarios, the MockServletContext was in fact present in the
WebApplicationContext; however there was no WebSocket ServerContainer
stored in the ServletContext.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing the following.
- MockServerContainer: a private mock implementation of the
javax.websocket.server.ServerContainer interface.
- MockServerContainerContextCustomizer: a ContextCustomizer that
instantiates a new MockServerContainer and stores it in the
ServletContext under the attribute named
"javax.websocket.server.ServerContainer".
- MockServerContainerContextCustomizerFactory: a
ContextCustomizerFactory which creates a
MockServerContainerContextCustomizer if WebSocket support is present
in the classpath and the test class is annotated with
@WebAppConfiguration. This factory is registered by default via the
spring.factories mechanism.
Issue: SPR-14367
ReflectionTestUtils invokes toString() on target objects in order to
build exception and logging messages, and prior to this commit problems
could occur if the invocation of toString() threw an exception.
This commit addresses this issue by ensuring that all invocations of
toString() on target objects within ReflectionTestUtils are performed
safely within try-catch blocks.
Issue: SPR-14363
Previously MockMvcWebConnection did not update the cookie manager with the
cookies from MockHttpServletResponse. This meant that newly added cookies
are not saved to the cookie manager and thus are not presented in the next
request.
This commit ensures that MockMvcWebConnection stores the response cookies
in the cookie manager.
Issue: SPR-14265
Prior to Java 8 it never really made much sense to author integration
tests using interfaces. Consequently, the Spring TestContext Framework
has never supported finding test-related annotations on interfaces in
its search algorithms.
However, Java 8's support for interface default methods introduces new
testing use cases for which it makes sense to declare test
configuration (e.g., @ContextConfiguration, etc.) on an interface
containing default methods instead of on an abstract base class.
This commit ensures that all non-repeatable, class-level test
annotations in the Spring TestContext Framework can now be declared on
test interfaces. The only test annotations that cannot be declared on
interfaces are therefore @Sql and @SqlGroup.
Issue: SPR-14184
Prior to this commit, @BeforeTransaction and @AfterTransaction could
only be declared on methods within test classes. However, JUnit 5 as
well as some existing third-party Runner implementations for JUnit 4
already support Java 8 based interface default methods in various
scenarios -- for example, @Test, @BeforeEach, etc.
This commit brings the Spring TestContext Framework up to date by
supporting the declaration of @BeforeTransaction and @AfterTransaction
on interface default methods.
Issue: SPR-14183
Previously MockWebResponseBuilder would use the cookie domain of the cookie
received from MockMvc response. This caused problems because the cookie
domain can be null, but HtmlUnit forbids a null domain.
This commit defaults the domain of the cookie to the domain of the
WebRequest.
Issues SPR-14169
This commit introduces @Ignore'd tests for future support for declaring
@BeforeTransaction and @AfterTransaction on interface default methods.
Issue: SPR-14183
Previously HtmlUnitRequestBuilder did not decode parameter names. This
means if a parameter like row[0] was submittted it would be encoded as
row%5B0%5D When the HttpServletRequest was created the parameter name would
not be decoded so the parameter name row[0] would not be found.
This commit ensures that HTTP parameter names are decoded.
Issue SPR-14177
This commit introduces a new method in TestPropertySourceUtils that
allows properties files to be added directly to the environment without
the need for a ConfigurableApplicationContext upfront; however, a
ResourceLoader is still necessary.
Issue: SPR-14131
Prior to this commit, the size of the ApplicationContext cache in the
Spring TestContext Framework could grow without bound, leading to
issues with memory and performance in large test suites.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing support for setting the
maximum cache size via a JVM system property or Spring property called
"spring.test.context.cache.maxSize". If no such property is set, a
default value of 32 will be used.
Furthermore, the DefaultContextCache has been refactored to use a
synchronized LRU cache internally instead of a ConcurrentHashMap. The
LRU cache is a simple bounded cache with a "least recently used" (LRU)
eviction policy.
Issue: SPR-8055
JSON payloads are sometimes prepended with a static string prefix
to prevent Cross Site Scripting Inclusion attacks (XSSI).
Prior to this commit, doing so would fail the MockMvc
`JsonPathResultMatchers` since they're considering the whole response as
the JSON payload.
This commit adds a new `JsonPathResultMatchers.prefix` method that
configures the matchers to check for the presence of that string (i.e.
fail if it's not there) and only consider the rest of the response body
as the JSON payload for other assertions.
Issue: SPR-13577
Previously MockMvc builders failed to share the WebConnection used for
managing cookies in the MockMvcWebConnection. This meant that the various
CookieManagers would have different states.
This commit ensures that the WebConnection is set on the
MockMvcWebConnection.
Fixes SPR-14066
This commit introduces a test to demonstrate that inlined properties
override properties loaded from Properties files in
@TestPropertySource.
Issue: SPR-14068
This commit adds support for unwrapping proxies in the setField() and
getField() methods in ReflectionTestUtils.
Instead of always accessing fields directly on the supplied
targetObject (which may be a proxy), AopTestUtils is now used to obtain
the potential ultimateTargetObject which is then used for accessing
fields.
Issue: SPR-14050
Allow third-parties to contribute ContextCustomizers that can customize
ApplicationContexts created by the Spring TestContext Framework (TCF)
before they are refreshed.
A customizer may be provided via a ContextCustomizerFactory which is
registered with `spring.factories`. Each factory is consulted whenever
a new ApplicationContext needs to be created by the TCF. Factories may
inspect various details about the test and either return a new
ContextCustomizer or null.
ContextCustomizers are similar to ApplicationContextInitializers and
may perform any number of tasks, including bean registration, setting
of active profiles, etc.
Issue: SPR-13998
Add a ServletTestExecutionListener.ACTIVATE_LISTENER attribute which
can be set on the TestContext to trigger activation of the listener
even if a `@WebAppConfiguration` is not present.
Issue: SPR-14035
Prior to this commit, the @ContextConfiguration annotation was required
to be present even if default XML files, Groovy scripts, or
@Configuration classes were detected; however, in such cases the
@ContextConfiguration was typically declared empty and therefore
seemingly unnecessary boilerplate.
This commit permits @ContextConfiguration to be omitted whenever it can
be reasonably deduced. Consequently, integration tests such as the
following are now supported.
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
public class MyTest {
@Autowired String myBean;
@Test public void example() { /* ... */ }
@Configuration
static class Config {
@Bean String myBean() {
return "Hello";
}
}
}
Issue: SPR-13955
Update @WebAppConfiguration so that it no longer directly specifies
a TestContextBootstrapper. This allows third parties to use the
annotation in combination with their own bootstrapper.
BootstrapUtils now provides the detection logic for when
WebTestContextBootstrapper should be used.
Issue: SPR-13991
This commit changes the visibility of the getTestContext() method in
TestContextManager from 'protected' to 'public' in order to support
test method injection in JUnit 5 and similar use cases.
Issue: SPR-14011
This commit demonstrates how to register one or more @Configuration
classes via an ApplicationContextInitializer in a composed annotation so
that certain @Configuration classes are always registered whenever the
composed annotation is used, even if the composed annotation is used to
declare additional @Configuration classes.
Before this commit, specifying the charset to use with produces or
consumes @RequestMapping attributes resulted in default charset
loss. That was really annoying for JSON for example, where using
UTF-8 charset is mandatory in a lot of use cases.
This commit adds a defaultCharset property to
AbstractHttpMessageConverter in order to avoid losing the
default charset when specifying the charset with these
@RequestMapping attributes.
It changes slightly the default behavior (that's why we have waited
4.3), but it is much more error prone, and will match with most
user's expectations since the charset loss was accidental in most
use cases (users usually just want to limit the media type supported
by a specific handler method).
Issue: SPR-13631
This commit introduces the following common composed annotations for
@RequestMapping in Spring MVC and Spring MVC REST.
- @GetMapping
- @PostMapping
- @PutMapping
- @DeleteMapping
- @PatchMapping
Issue: SPR-13992
Prior to this commit, the TransactionalTestExecutionListener required
@Transactional test methods to be public; however, neither TestNG nor
JUnit 5 require that @Test methods are public. Consequently, non-public
transactional test methods silently run *without* a transaction.
This commit removes the 'public' restriction on transactional test
methods by setting the 'publicMethodsOnly' flag in
AnnotationTransactionAttributeSource to false.
Issue: SPR-14000
In order to align with the relaxed programming models of TestNG and the
upcoming JUnit 5 (with regard to method visibility), this commit
removes the requirement that @BeforeTransaction and @AfterTransaction
methods must be 'public'.
Issue: SPR-13997
This commit introduces a SpringRunner extension of
SpringJUnit4ClassRunner that is intended to be used as an 'alias' for
SpringJUnit4ClassRunner, primarily in order to simplify configuration
of JUnit 4 based integration tests.
Developers can use this alias as follows:
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
public class MySpringIntegrationTests { ... }
Issue: SPR-13954
MockRestServiceServer now provides static methods for builder-style
creation of MockRestServiceServer. This includes an option ignore
the order of declaration expected requests.
Issue: SPR-11365
This commit factors out the logic to declare and manage expectations
including matching them to requests and verifying at the end behind
a commong abstraction.
MockRestServiceServer delegates to the new abstraction and is no longer
aware of how that's done. There are two implementations, one for
ordered and another for unordered expectation.
Issue: SPR-11365
Before this commit RequestMatcherClientHttpRequest served both as
API to define request expectations, i.e. ResponseActions, as well as
the implementation of ClientHttpRequest representing actual requests.
DefaultResponseActions replaces this class as a simple holder of
expected requests and mock responses. MockRestServiceServer is then
responsible to match request expectations and create a mock response.
Issue: SPR-11365
Prior to this commit, the transaction manager and data source look-up
algorithms in the Spring TestContext Framework were not capable of
retrieving 'primary' beans of those types, even though 'primary' beans
are supported in production as well as for injecting dependencies into
test instances. Specifically, if there was more than one transaction
manager or data source bean and one of them was flagged as 'primary',
the retrieveTransactionManager() and retrieveDataSource() methods in
TestContextTransactionUtils would simply return null for such beans.
This commit updates TestContextTransactionUtils by adding support for
looking up primary transaction managers and data sources.
Issue: SPR-13891
Prior to this commit, a @Transactional integration test would silently
be executed without a transaction if the transaction manager could not
be retrieved from the application context -- for example, it no such
bean was defined or if multiple beans were present but none satisfied
the qualifier.
This commit addresses this issue by throwing an IllegalStateException
if the PlatformTransactionManager cannot be retrieved for a
@Transactional test.
Issue: SPR-13895
Spring MVC Test now parses application/x-www-form-urlencoded request
content and populates request parameters from it.
This can be useful when running client-side tests against a MockMvc
via MockMvcClientHttpRequestFactory.
Issue: SPR-13733
Prior to this commit, Spring MVC Test only supported HTTP methods GET,
POST, HEAD, OPTIONS, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, TRACE and multipart file
upload. This change adds generic methods to MockMvcRequestBuilders in
order to allow testing of arbitrary HTTP methods in a Spring MVC
application.
Issue: SPR-13719
The inner MimeTypeResolver class is no longer necessary in the
MockServletContext since the Java Activation Framework (JAF) is a
standard part of Java SE since Java 6.
Prior to this commit, HtmlUnitRequestBuilder stored empty query
parameters declared without an equals sign as null (i.e., query
parameters such as 'error' in 'http://example.com/login?error').
This commit addresses this issue by ensuring that
HtmlUnitRequestBuilder treats all empty query parameter values as empty
strings. Consequently, query strings such as '?error' and '?error=' now
both result in 'error' being stored as an empty string.
Issue: SPR-13524
Prior to this commit, HtmlUnitRequestBuilder would incorrectly attempt
to decode null values for query parameters (i.e., query parameters such
as 'error' in 'http://example.com/login?error') which resulted in a
NullPointerException since URLDecoder.decode() does not support null
values.
This commit fixes this issue by ensuring that HtmlUnitRequestBuilder
only attempts to decode non-null query parameter values.
Issue: SPR-13524
SpringJUnit4ClassRunner, SpringClassRule, and SpringMethodRule now
throw an IllegalStateException with a meaningful message if JUnit 4.9
is not present in the classpath (specifically if
org.junit.runners.model.MultipleFailureException cannot be loaded).
Issue: SPR-13521
This commit migrates all remaining tests from JUnit 3 to JUnit 4, with
the exception of Spring's legacy JUnit 3.8 based testing framework that
is still in use in the spring-orm module.
Issue: SPR-13514
The MockHttpServletRequestBuilder now uses java.net.URI internally
rather than UriComponents.
This means that for the MockMvcRequestBuilders method variants that
accept a java.net.URI we can use it as is. The difference is almost
none but it does mean that you can create a URI with double slashes
(for testing purposes) and have it remain that way.
Issue: SPR-13435
This commit introduces support for attribute overrides for
@ResponseStatus when @ResponseStatus is used as a meta-annotation on
a custom composed annotation.
Specifically, this commit migrates all code that looks up
@ResponseStatus from using AnnotationUtils.findAnnotation() to using
AnnotatedElementUtils.findMergedAnnotation().
Issue: SPR-13441
This change adds a new `getDateHeader` method that converts date header
Strings to long values - making tests more readable.
This feature is also documented in the "what's new section" for 4.2.
Before this commit RequestPartServletServerHttpRequest simply did an
instanceof check for MultipartHttpServletRequest. That hasn't failed
because request wrapping typically happens in filters before the
DispatcherServlet calls the MultipartResolver.
With Spring MVC Test and the Spring Security integraiton however,
this order is reversed since there we prepare the multipart request
upfront, i.e. there is no actual parsing.
The commit unwraps the request if necessary.
Issue: SPR-13317
This commit introduces new `isEmpty()` and `isNotEmpty()` methods in
`JsonPathResultMatchers` and `JsonPathRequestMatchers` which delegate
to the new `assertValueIsEmpty()` and `assertValueIsNotEmpty()` methods
in `JsonPathExpectationsHelper`, respectively.
Issue: SPR-13352
Commit fffdd1e9e9 introduced additional
JsonPath result matchers in JsonPathResultMatchers for server-side
testing of MVC controllers.
This commit introduces comparable methods in JsonPathRequestMatchers
for client-side testing with a RestTemplate.
- isString()
- isBoolean()
- isNumber()
- isMap()
Issue: SPR-13320
Prior to this commit, the exists() method in JsonPathExpectationsHelper
correctly asserted that the evaluated JsonPath expression resulted in a
value (i.e., that a non-null value exists); however, if the value was
an empty array, the exists() method always threw an AssertionError.
The existing behavior makes sense if the JsonPath expression is
'indefinite' -- for example, if the expression uses a filter to select
results based on a predicate for which there is no match in the JSON
document, but the existing behavior is illogical and therefore invalid
if the JsonPath expression is 'definite' (i.e., directly references an
array in the JSON document that exists but happens to be empty). For
example, prior to this commit, the following threw an AssertionError.
new JsonPathExpectationsHelper("$.arr").exists("{ 'arr': [] }");
Similar arguments can be made for the doesNotExist() method.
After thorough analysis of the status quo, it has become apparent that
the existing specialized treatment of arrays is a result of the fact
that the JsonPath library always returns an empty list if the path is
an 'indefinite' path that does not evaluate to a specific result.
Consult the discussion on "What is Returned When?" in the JsonPath
documentation for details:
https://github.com/jayway/JsonPath#what-is-returned-when
This commit addresses these issues by ensuring that empty arrays are
considered existent if the JsonPath expression is definite but
nonexistent if the expression is indefinite.
Issue: SPR-13351
Prior to this commit, a JsonPath assertion that a path expression
evaluated to an array in JsonPathExpectationsHelper (and therefore
indirectly in JsonPathResultMatchers in Spring MVC Test) would
incorrectly fail if the array was present in the JSON content but empty.
This commit fixes this issue by removing the "not empty" check for
arrays and lists.
Issue: SPR-13320
Prior to this commit, MockHttpServletRequestBuilder always supplied an
array of cookies to the MockHttpServletRequest that it built, even if
the array was empty.
However, this violates the contract of HttpServletRequest. According to
the Servlet API, the getCookies() method "returns null if no cookies
were sent."
This commit ensures that MockHttpServletRequestBuilder no longer
configures an empty array of cookies in the mock request that it builds.
Issue: SPR-13314
This commit introduces the following methods in JsonPathResultMatchers
in the Spring MVC Test framework.
- isString()
- isBoolean()
- isNumber()
- isMap()
In addition, this commit overhauls the Javadoc in
JsonPathResultMatchers and JsonPathExpectationsHelper.
Issue: SPR-13320
SPR-11512 introduced support for annotation attribute aliases via
@AliasFor, requiring the explicit declaration of the 'attribute'
attribute. However, for aliases within an annotation, this explicit
declaration is unnecessary.
This commit improves the readability of alias pairs declared within an
annotation by introducing a 'value' attribute in @AliasFor that is an
alias for the existing 'attribute' attribute. This allows annotations
such as @ContextConfiguration from the spring-test module to declare
aliases as follows.
public @interface ContextConfiguration {
@AliasFor("locations")
String[] value() default {};
@AliasFor("value")
String[] locations() default {};
// ...
}
Issue: SPR-13289
This commit fixes numerous references to 'legacy' packages within the
Javadoc for the Spring MVC Test framework.
In addition, this commit improves examples in Javadoc, adds links to
related classes where appropriate, and removes unnecessary imports for
types that are only referenced within documentation.

This commit introduces a dedicated build() method in
MockMvcHtmlUnitDriverBuilder to replace createDriver(). In addition,
the configureDriver() method has been renamed to withDelegate() and now

This commit also overhauls the Javadoc for static factory methods and
the class-level Javadoc in MockMvcHtmlUnitDriverBuilder for greater
clarity to end users.

This commit introduces integration between MockMvc and HtmlUnit, thus
simplifying end-to-end testing when using HTML-based views and enabling
developers to do the following.
- Easily test HTML pages using tools such as HtmlUnit, WebDriver, & Geb
without the need to deploy to a Servlet container
- Test JavaScript within pages
- Optionally test using mock services to speed up testing
- Share logic between in-container, end-to-end tests and
out-of-container integration tests

Since @TransactionConfiguration is now deprecated, this commit also
deprecates TransactionConfigurationAttributes with the intention of
completely removing TransactionConfigurationAttributes once
@TransactionConfiguration has been removed.
Issue: SPR-13277
Due to common usage of @Rollback(false), this commit introduces a new
@Commit annotation that more clearly conveys the intent of the code
while retaining the run-time semantics.
@Commit is in fact meta-annotated with @Rollback(false).
Issue: SPR-13279
Since Spring Framework 2.5, @Rollback has been supported on test
methods, with class-level rollback settings configured via
@TransactionConfiguration; however, allowing @Rollback to be declared
on test classes with method-level declarations overriding class-level
declarations would prove more intuitive than having to declare both
@TransactionConfiguration and @Rollback. Furthermore, the
transactionManager flag in @TransactionConfiguration was made
superfluous many years ago with the introduction of support for a
qualifier in @Transactional.
This commit enables @Rollback to be declared at the class level for
default rollback semantics within test class hierarchies and deprecates
@TransactionConfiguration in favor of @Rollback and @Transactional
qualifiers.
