RE: Injecting Static/Mock Resources into my Struts 2 Actions
I do this all the time. Then I'm not crazy ;) Not sure what experiences you're looking for; if the data is _very_ complex it may be easier to just embed a DB and load it up with DBUnit or something like that. It's not the data that's complex so much as the whole distributed system that needs to be in place for the business objects to make actual queries . . . Basically any tutorial that talks about testing in Spring is applicable, the only difference is the MVC layer. I think I understand the Spring portion of this well enough. One thing, however, that I'm not straight on is the build / deployment portion. This is clearly off topic, for this list, but I wonder how to automate the spring config for the various deployment enivonments. We have a maven build, and I'd like to use the build to configure the injections for the correct deployment target . . . but I'm leery of getting cross wise with Maven. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org

I use these in junit tests. I don't know if this is what you want to do the
following is just codesnipplets hoping they are enough to show you how I use
easymock with spring. But I guess I missed the part in your original message
that you want to do UI testing.
The unit test class:
import static org.easymock.EasyMock.expect;
import static org.easymock.EasyMock.replay;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
//more imports
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = {applicationContextForThisUnitTest.xml})
public class Tests extends StrutsSpringJUnit4TestCaseTheActionClassToTest {
@Autowired
private interface.for.the.service serviceWeNeed
@Before
public void setup(){
ObjectFromService ofs = new ObjectFromService
expect(serviceWeNeed.methodeCalled).andReturn(ofs);
replay(serviceWeNeed);
}
@Test
public void test1() throws IOException, InteractionPackageUpdateExecption
{
ActionProxy proxy = getActionProxy(/path/to/action.action);
TheActionToTest action = (TheActionToTest) proxy.getAction();
proxy.setExecuteResult(false);
try {
assertEquals(ExecutionCode, input, proxy.execute());
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
About using this method in UI test I'm not so sure. In our project I just
wrote a second set of services return static data as need. Depending on the
maven profile getting used for the build, either the real services or just the
dummys get include. Maybe this approache also works for you.

Pascal

Injecting Static/Mock Resources into my Struts 2 Actions
I would like to deploy my app to a UI testing / demo environment. In this environment, the regular business logic objects would be replaced ( via DI ) with mock implementations of those resources. These mocks would return a static data set, thus giving a predictable behavior against which we can build automated UI tests, provide a lightweight demo environment that doesn't need integrated into our rather large and complex real world data context, etc. My thoughts are to use the Spring integration to inject the mocks. I'm new to doing DI / testing in this kind of setting. Is anyone doing something like this? Can you share some experiences? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org

I've also used builders to load up data structures for more-complex data, stuck that data into a map with an ID key, and use those as test/demo DAOs. It also makes it easy to push a button in the app to restore values if you need to show something again etc. Basically any tutorial that talks about testing in Spring is applicable, the only difference is the MVC layer.

Re: Injecting Static/Mock Resources into my Struts 2 Actions
Hi I use easymock to mock service in the action classes. In the spring context I add: bean id=MockedService name=MockedService class=org.easymock.EasyMock factory-method=createStrictMock constructor-arg value=Interface.for.the.Service/ /bean Hope thats enough to give you a idea how it could work Regards, Pascal On Wednesday 22 August 2012 15:33:26 Davis, Chad wrote: I would like to deploy my app to a UI testing / demo environment.
