A test plugin for vraptor

vraptor-test

A VRaptor plugin that allows you to quickly create integration or system tests.

installing

You can install it by doing:

vraptor plugin vraptor-test

Or add to your pom:

	<dependency>
		<groupId>br.com.caelum.vraptor</groupId>
		<artifactId>vraptor-test</artifactId>
		<version>1.0.0</version>
		<scope>test</scope>
	</dependency>

Or simply copy all jars to your classpath.

Creating a system wide test

Create a test case such as the following, that starts the server just once:

public interface Server {
	static final RealVRaptor VRAPTOR = new RealVRaptor(new File("src/main/webapp")); 
}

public class IndexTest implements Server {

	@Test
	public void shouldHaveTheProductsListAvailable() {
		assertEquals(200, VRAPTOR.at("/products").get().getCode());
	}
}

The VRAPTOR.at method returns a Restfulie client instance, so you can use it as a client HTTP api to access your vraptor instance. Note that system wide tests will render your view files and fully process the web.xml configuration.

Running the tests

To run your tests, use the build tool you have chosen with vraptor-scaffold or simply use JUnit in your IDE.
