How can I create a BufferedReader from a String?

Question

I am trying to pass a String to my BufferedReader . How can I pass "test" as String to the reader rather than the input from System.in ?

String test = "test";
BufferedReader inFromUser = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));

Answer 1

You can modify your code as below

String test = "test";
Reader inputString = new StringReader(test);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(inputString);

Answer 2

No point in buffering a string. Just

String aString = ...;
Reader inFromUser = new StringReader(aString);
