I have a Rest Controller method using Spring 3.1 that looks like this:
@RequestMapping(value="/user", method=RequestMethod.POST, consumes={MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE})
public ResponseEntity<String> addUser(@RequestBody @Valid User user){
System.out.println("called / user method");
try{
user = userService.addUser(user);
return responseBuilder.addApiResourceSucceeded(user,null);
}catch(Exception e){
return responseBuilder.apiActionFailed("user already exists", HttpStatus.CONFLICT);
}
}
I have test which looks like this:
@Before
public void setUp() {
adapter = new AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter();
request = new MockHttpServletRequest();
response = new MockHttpServletResponse();
mapper = new ObjectMapper();
}
@Test
public void testAddUser() throws Exception {
request.setMethod("POST");
request.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE);
request.setRequestURI("/user");
ObjectNode userJson = mapper.createObjectNode();
userJson.put("userId", "jonnybz");
userJson.put("email", "test@gmail.com");
userJson.put("password", "password");
userJson.put("longitude",-10.127205999);
userJson.put("latitude", 57.252269);
ArrayNode arrNode = mapper.createArrayNode();
arrNode.add(-10.1272059999);
arrNode.add(57.2522);
userJson.put("lonLat",arrNode);
request.setContent(mapper.writeValueAsBytes(userJson));
adapter.handle(request, response, userController);
String content = response.getContentAsString();
assertEquals(200, response.getStatus());
User user = dao.listAll().get(0);
objectId = user.getId();
assertNotNull(objectId);
}
When I execute a call against this endpoint from my client app (developed with angular) it works great, but when I run my test I get an " Content type 'application/json' which is coming from a HttpMediaTypeNotSupportedException" error that I cannot track down. The request never seems to hit my method. Am I missing something simple here?
Solved this problem by switching to the spring-mvc-test framework and building my test like this:
@Test
public void testAddUser() throws Exception {
ObjectNode userJson = mapper.createObjectNode();
userJson.put("userId", "jonnbz");
userJson.put("email", "test@gmail.com");
userJson.put("password", "password");
userJson.put("longitude",-10.667205999);
userJson.put("latitude", 74.252269);
ArrayNode arrNode = mapper.createArrayNode();
arrNode.add(-10.667205999);
arrNode.add(74.252269);
userJson.put("lonLat",arrNode);
MvcResult res = MockMvcBuilders.xmlConfigSetup("classpath:test-context.xml").build()
.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders.post("/user")
.accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
.body(mapper.writeValueAsBytes(userJson)))
.andExpect(status().isOk())
.andExpect(content().type(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
.andReturn();
System.out.println(res.getResponse().getContentAsString());
}
