I try to write integration tests for my spring MVC app.
Problem:
It seems that TilesView can't resolve views in my spring mvc tests. In my test MockMvcResultMatchers.forwardedUrl() returns "/WEB-INF/jsp/layout.jsp", instead of "/WEB-INF/jsp/manageEntities.jsp"
*My app works fine, problems exist only in tests!
See '//Assertion error' comment in my test class
Code:
Maybe code will be more explanatory than words. I tried to make it as clear as it possible.
Controller:
@Controller
public class MyController {
@RequestMapping("/manageEntities.html")
public String showManageEntitiesPage(Map<String, Object> model) {
//some logic ...
return "manageEntities";
}
Test:
@WebAppConfiguration
@ContextHierarchy({
@ContextConfiguration(locations = { "classpath:ctx/persistenceContextTest.xml" }),
@ContextConfiguration(locations = { "file:src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/servlet.xml" })
})
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
public class EntityControllerTest {
@Autowired
protected WebApplicationContext wac;
private MockMvc mockMvc;
@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
this.mockMvc = webAppContextSetup(this.wac).build();
}
@Test // FAILS!!
public void entity_test() throws Exception {
//neede mocks
//........
mockMvc.perform(get("/manageEntities.html"))
.andExpect(status().isOk())
.andExpect(forwardedUrl("/WEB-INF/jsp/manageEntities.jsp")); //Assertion error!!!
}
}
tiles.xml:
