Testing

Testing is a crucial activity in any piece of software development or integration. Typically Camel Riders use various different technologies wired together in a variety of patterns with different _expression_ languages together with different forms of Bean Integration and Dependency Injection so its very easy for things to go wrong! . Testing is the crucial weapon to ensure that things work as you would expect.

Camel is a Java library so you can easily wire up tests in whatever unit testing framework you use (JUnit 3.x, 4.x or TestNG). However the Camel project has tried to make the testing of Camel as easy and powerful as possible so we have introduced the following features.

Testing mechanisms

The following mechanisms are supported

Name Description
Camel Test is a library letting you easily create Camel test cases using a single Java class for all your configuration and routing without using Spring or Guice for Dependency Injection which does not require an in depth knowledge of Spring+SpringTest or Guice
Spring Testing uses Spring Test together with either XML or Java Config to dependency inject your test classes
Guice uses Guice to dependency inject your test classes

In all approaches the test classes look pretty much the same in that they all reuse the Camel binding and injection annotations.
