Controller test

[Quantumuniverses]

I launched this test but it failed: why?


package com.test.unit

import com.ExampleController

class ExampleControllerTests extends ControllerUnitTestCase {
    protected void setUp() {
    }
    protected void tearDown() {
    }
    void testActionIndex() {
    }
}


RESULT:

Running test com.Example.test.ExampleControllerTests...

Probably because you imported the wrong class?

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.ExampleController

Maybe you meant

import com.test.ExampleController

Because the class com.ExampleController isn't in your classpath, apparently.  You'd have to provide some kind of context if you want a response that goes beyond reiterating what the exception has to say.  If you don't have a com.ExampleController class, then remove that import statement.

 

package com.test.unit

import com.ExampleController

class ExampleControllerTests extends ControllerUnitTestCase {
  protected void setUp() {
  }
  protected void tearDown() {
  }
  void testActionIndex() {
  }
}


RESULT:

I wouldn't expect that test to compile because ControllerUnitTestCase is in the grails.test package, which isn't imported.

It looks like your test is not in the same package as the controller that it is testing.  If that is what you want, then you need to write a constructor and pass the controller under test as an argument to super()...

package com.test.unit

class ExampleControllerTests extends grails.test.ControllerUnitTestCase {
   public ExampleControllerTests() {
       super(com.ExampleController)
   }
   protected void setUp() {
   }
   protected void tearDown() {
   }
   void testActionIndex() {
   } 
}


The error message says that com.ExampleController cannot be found.  I would expect it to say com.test.unit.ExampleController cannot be found.

The combination of those problems makes me wonder if maybe you tried 2 or 3 different things and the error message above is not related to the version of the test above.

With Grails 2.0.3, this does work...

 $ cat test/unit/com/test/unit/ExampleControllerTests.groovy
package com.test.unit

class ExampleControllerTests extends grails.test.ControllerUnitTestCase {

    public ExampleControllerTests() {
        super(com.ExampleController)
    }
   
    protected void setUp() {}
    protected void tearDown() {}
       
    void testActionIndex() {}
}
 $
 $ grails test-app unit:

My controller is here:

 

com.ExampleController

 

Why should I import this?

 

com.test.unit.ExampleController

 

In other words: have I to import my real controller (com.ExampleController) or a unit test controller?

If ExampleControllerTests extends GrailsUnitTestCase (instead of
ControllerUnitTestCase) then it doesn't fail. But I should extend
ControllerUnitTestCase to mock my controller.. right?

This let my test work:

 

public ExampleControllerTests() {
    super(com.ExampleController)
}

 

Thanks a lot!
