--------------------------------------
Summary: Add test support classes for unit testing components
Key: CAMEL-6029
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-6029
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: camel-test
Affects Versions: 2.11.0
Reporter: Hadrian Zbarcea
Assignee: Hadrian Zbarcea
Fix For: 2.11.0
(see the [3.0
roadmap|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CAMEL/Camel+3.0+-+Roadmap] )
No matter what choices and changes we make in the core, many tests in
components will start failing. That is because virtually all unit tests in
components test much more than the component itself, by setting up routes, etc.
A simple thing would be do create something like xyzTestSupport (where xyz in
{"Component", "Configuration", "Endpoint", "Producer", "Consumer", "Language",
etc... }), that test a respective area without setting up routes and possibly
use a minimal CamelContext (w/o component discover and/or other features).
Moving component unit tests to such a framework is not complicated, a bit
tedious, but hopefully we'll benefit (yet again) from community contributions
and gain new committers in the process. This is probably the first thing that
should be done that will allow us to be more productive with the other
improvements. It can also be done in 2.x and won't require any incompatible
changes.
