John Bush commented on WW-5030:
-------------------------------
It has been a while since I've looked at this closely but I don't think there
was actually a dependency to spring-webmvc-portlet instead to spring-test.
WW-3826 added StrutsPortletTestCase.java to struts2-portlet-plugin which
created a dependency to the package org.springframework.mock.web.portlet in
spring-test. That package got pruned as part of Spring's SPR-14129.
My opinions are: StrutsPortletTestCase.java should really be in the
struts2-junit-plugin with the other Struts???TestCases. If it's deemed OK to
use the code authored by Spring it should also reside in struts2-junit-plugin.
My reasoning is that the other mock classes for Struts JUnit support is there
only in this case it would be Struts' instead of Spring's(which is/was
imported).
I acknowledge the universe of struts2-portlet-plugin users is probably very
small. Also JSR 362 Portlet 3.0 API Specification is out and I assume there
isn’t plans for adding JSR 362 support to the struts2-portlet-plugin. I don’t
think the solution needs to be far forward thinking since it’s a legacy support
issue.
Thanks, John

> WW-3826 solved a problem running JUnit tests on portlet actions that use the
> struts2-portlet-plugin and struts2-junit-plugin. The solution used Spring's
> org.springframework.mock.web.portlet package in the spring-test framework.
> Spring Portlet MVC is no longer supported (SPR-14129) and the package has
> been removed starting with Spring 5. I'm not able to upgrade to Spring 5
> without loosing my unit testing since having both versions of spring-test in
> my classpath creates many other issues.
> I've attached a zipped portlet project for testing (TestStrutsPortlet.zip),
> console log from a successful test (success.txt) and console log from a
> failed test (fail.txt). All that needs to change is the spring-version in the
> POM to recreate the testing.
