Is there a way to use AssertJ assertions with Spri

问题:

I have been using AssertJ for some time in my projects. Recently I started using Spring MVC Test for testing Spring MVC controllers.

But I am not getting how to use AssertJ with it. All examples I see online all use Hamcrest with Spring MVC Test.

Below is an example using the Hamcrest API.

mockMvc
                .perform(get("/user?operation=userList"))
                .andExpect(status().isOk())
                .andExpect(model().attribute(UserController.MODEL_ATTRIBUTE_USER_LIST, userList))
                .andExpect(view().name(UserController.VIEW_USER_LIST))
                .andExpect(model().attribute(UserController.MODEL_ATTRIBUTE_USER_LIST, hasSize(2)))
                .andExpect(model().attribute(UserController.MODEL_ATTRIBUTE_USER_LIST, hasItem(
                        allOf(
                                hasProperty("id", is(1L)),
                                hasProperty("description", is("Lorem ipsum")),
                                hasProperty("title", is("Foo"))
                        )
                )))
                .andExpect(model().attribute(UserController.MODEL_ATTRIBUTE_USER_LIST, hasItem(
                        allOf(
                                hasProperty("id", is(2L)),
                                hasProperty("description", is("Lorem ipsum")),
                                hasProperty("title", is("Bar"))
                        )
                )));

Update

If you would like to vote for inclusion of support for AssertJ assertions with MockMvc, please see the related Spring JIRA issue: SPR-16637.

Generally speaking, you may choose whatever assertion framework you like when testing with Spring.

However, the particular scenario you are describing involves the API of the Spring MVC Test framework. The methods in question are designed to be used with the Hamcrest Matcher API. It is therefore not possible to use AssertJ within those method calls.

I've put together a library that offers AssertJ assertions for MockMvc but also for ResponseEntity (returned by TestRestTemplate): https://github.com/ngeor/yak4j-spring-test-utils

There has recently been an issue raised on the Spring Boot project to discuss adding support for AssertJ assertions with MockMvc, it might be worth keeping an eye on it. You can view the issue here: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/5729

It looks like the initial concept created by Phil Webb involves wrapping the MockMvc to provide support for AssertJ assertions.
