spring-test-portlet-mvc

This project is based on the concepts of the server-side component of spring-test-mvc aka MockMvc (https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-test-mvc). It tries to adapt the features for the portlet environment.

The project is still work in progress, but the general API (since derived from spring-test-mvc) is almost finished.

Feel free to contribute and send me a pull request or drop a message.

Update: It is now also possible to test without an existing Application Context (see StandaloneAppContextTest)

Update 2: The project has been published to maven central and can now be easily referenced in your project of choice!

##Maven Integration The project can be obtained trough the maven central repository.

###Controller

@Controller
@RequestMapping("VIEW") 
public class PersonController {
	
	@RequestMapping

		Person person = new Person();
		model.addAttribute(person);
		return "view";
	}
	
}

###Test

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = { "classpath:testApplicationContext.xml"})	
public class BasicTests {
	
	@Autowired
	private ApplicationContext applicationContext;
	
	@Test
	public void testBasicPortlet() throws Exception {
		existingApplicationContext(applicationContext).build()
			.perform(render().param("test", "test"))
			.andExpect(view().name("view"))
			.andExpect(model().attributeExists("person"))
			.andReturn();
	}
