Support for server-side JUnit tests, injected in a running Sling instance
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SLING-1963
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1963
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
Assignee: Bertrand Delacretaz
I've been working on a prototype JUnit extension framework [1] that allows
JUnit tests to be injected in a Sling instance, and executed via a test runner
servlet.
Tests are not yet OSGi-aware in the first prototype, but they are dynamically
injected as exported classes in a bundle that points to them with a
Test-Package header. Apart from that they are 100% normal JUnit3 or 4 tests.
Next step is to use annotations to inject services in the tests, I'm thinking
of something like
@TestReference
SlingRepository repository
And maybe
@Test
@OptionalTest(requiredService=repository)
public void someTest()...
which would ignore the test if the repository service is not present.
The prototype consists of two bundles: "extension" which is the test detection
and runner services, and "testbundle" which provides a few example tests. To
play with it, install the two bundles and access the test servlet at
/system/sling/junit/
