Issue
I want to write an integration test for a delete method in my controller, but no matter how many times I tried rewriting it, I am still getting different errors. This is the method in my controller:
@Controller
public class AgencyController {
@Autowired
private AgencyService agencyService;
@Autowired
private AgencyMapper agencyMapper;
@GetMapping("/deleteAgencyPage/{id}")
public String deleteAgencyPage(@PathVariable(value = "id") Long id) {
agencyService.deleteById(id);
return "redirect:/";
}
}
And this is the test, plain and simple, only a call to the method and checking a status:
@SpringBootTest
@TestPropertySource(locations = "classpath:application-h2.properties")
@AutoConfigureMockMvc
@WithMockUser(username = "[email protected]")
@ActiveProfiles("H2")
public class AgencyControllerTest {
@Autowired
MockMvc mockMvc;
@MockBean
AgencyService agencyService;
@MockBean
AgencyMapper agencyMapper;
@MockBean
Model model;
@Test
public void deleteAgency() throws Exception {
mockMvc.perform(get("/deleteAgencyPage/{id}",1L))
.andExpect(status().isOk());
}
}
This is what I get:
MockHttpServletRequest:
HTTP Method = GET
Request URI = /deleteAgencyPage/1
Parameters = {}
Headers = []
Body = <no character encoding set>
Session Attrs = {SPRING_SECURITY_CONTEXT=SecurityContextImpl [Authentication=UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken [Principal=org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.User [[email protected], Password=[PROTECTED], Enabled=true, AccountNonExpired=true, credentialsNonExpired=true, AccountNonLocked=true, Granted Authorities=[ROLE_USER]], Credentials=[PROTECTED], Authenticated=true, Details=null, Granted Authorities=[ROLE_USER]]]}
Handler:
Type = com.example.awbdproject.controllers.AgencyController
Method = com.example.awbdproject.controllers.AgencyController#deleteAgencyPage(Long)
Async:
Async started = false
Async result = null
Resolved Exception:
Type = null
ModelAndView:
View name = redirect:/
View = null
Model = null
FlashMap:
Attributes = null
MockHttpServletResponse:
Status = 302
Error message = null
Headers = [Content-Language:"en", X-Content-Type-Options:"nosniff", X-XSS-Protection:"1; mode=block", Cache-Control:"no-cache, no-store, max-age=0, must-revalidate", Pragma:"no-cache", Expires:"0", X-Frame-Options:"DENY", Location:"/"]
Content type = null
Body =
Forwarded URL = null
Redirected URL = /
Cookies = []
java.lang.AssertionError: Status expected:<200> but was:<302>
Expected :200
Actual :302
What am I not doing correct? It seems a simple test to me, but I am obviously missing something.
Solution
The integration test works correctly. For example, a "home" return value serves your rendered template with a HTTP 200 Ok status. Here, a redirect leads to a HTTP 302 Found status. This response tells the client (browser) that the resource has (temporarily) moved.
Changing the test to .andExpect(status().isFound())
would make it succeed.
