使用Rest Assured和Spring Rest Docs找不到授权标头

Question

I am using Rest Assured to set the an authorization header and authenticate with client id and client secret using OAuth2. The Authorization is being sent to my application in my test, but my test fails if I use Spring Rest Docs to check for the prescence of the Authorization header using the headerWithName method.

    given(this.spec)
        .filter(document("oauth/token/client-credentials-grant",
                requestHeaders(
                        headerWithName("Authorization").description("The Authorization header")
                ),
                requestParameters(
                        parameterWithName("username").description("The users unique user ID"),
                        parameterWithName("password").description("The users password"),
                        parameterWithName("grant_type").description("The OAuth2 grant type used to authenticate"),
                        parameterWithName("scope").description("The scope of access requested")
                ),
                relaxedResponseFields(getOAuthResponseFieldDescriptors())
        ))
        .auth().basic(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET)
        .param("username", USERNAME)
        .param("password", PASSWORD)
        .param("grant_type", CLIENT_CREDENTIALS_GRANT)
        .param("scope", SCOPES)
    .when()
        .post(OAUTH_TOKEN_ENDPOINT)
    .then()
        .assertThat().statusCode(is(HttpStatus.OK.value()))
        .assertThat().contentType(is(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8_VALUE))

I get the following error saying that the Authorization header doesn't exist. I'm using Rest Assured 3.0.7 and Spring Rest Docs 2.0.0.RELEASE. It works fine if I remove the request header checks.

org.springframework.restdocs.snippet.SnippetException: Headers with the following names were not found in the request: [Authorization]

I ended up figuring this out with the help of this Github issue. Shout out to @johanhaleby for his comment

Hi,

auth().basic() expects the server to challenge with a basic auth request. What you're looking for is probably preemptive basic auth which adds the header without being challenged. So use

auth(). preemptive().basic("username", "password") instead.

So changing it to this .auth().preemptive().basic(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET) made it work!
