为服务编写集成测试

Question

I have a service class that I would like to perform the integration test (whitebox). The method code,

   @Async( ELLA_THREAD_POOL_EXECUTOR_NAME )
    public void invokeEllaAsync( final IrisBo irisBo ) {

        if( isTrafficAllowed( irisBo ) ) {
            callEllaService( irisBo );
        }
    }

    public void callEllaService( final IrisBo irisBo ) {

        HttpHeaders ellaHeaders = createRequestHeaders( irisBo );

        ServiceResponse<EllaResponseDto> response = connector.call( EllaDtoConverter.convertToRequest( irisBo ), ellaHeaders );

        if( !response.isSuccess() ) {
            LOG.error( "ERROR", response, irisBo );
        }
    }

The method that test is provided below,

@Test
public void testCallEllaServiceIsSuccessful() throws IOException {

    String emailAgeResponseJson = readFile( ELLA_RESPONSE_FILE );

    wireMockRule.stubFor( post( urlEqualTo( ELLA_ENDPOINT ) ).willReturn( okJson( emailAgeResponseJson ) ) );

    TestRequestInformation testRequestInformation = new TestRequestInformation();
    IrisBo irisBo = EllaTestDataProvider.createValidIrisBoWithoutRequest();


    service.callEllaService( irisBo );


}

I would like to validate the response data, The method invokeEllaAsync returns void . The response is inside the method callEllaService .

How do I validate the response data?

Answer 1

First of all, a quick googling reveals this question . Since I'm not 100% you're talking about Spring indeed, I don't suggest to consider this as a duplication.

Now I'll provide a couple of additional techniques, assuming we're talking about Spring's Async methods (the integration test is probably run with SpringRunner )

To start from the basics, in a nutshell, @Async methods are executed on the different thread pool. Technically it's done by generating a runtime proxy. So there are many techniques (out of my head, since I didn't really use them) that could help:

Option 1

Disable an Async Support for tests. This can be done by creating some kind of condition on your custom configuration class that will enable async support. Something like this:

 @Configuration
 @EnableAsync
 @ConditionalOnProperty(name = "async.support.enabled", havingValue = true)
 public class MyAsyncEnablerConfiguration {

 }

For tests make the variable false

Option 2

If its a method on a controller and you use mockMvc testing (again, only my speculation, I don't know where the code really is), you can take advantage of asyncDispatch method that will take care of asynchronous requests.

It looks like this:

mockMvc.perform(asyncDispatch(mvcResult)) // <-- Note this call
                    .andExpect(status().isOk())
                ...

A full example can be found Here

Option 3

Note that the return type of @Async method doesn't have to be void . It can be Future or even spring's AsyncResult . So if its a future - you could call future.get() in the code and get the result.
