Thanks for looking at this, Ben. I was studying the MockRoundTrip and
that seems like a nice tool with which to test ActionBean classes.
From what I can see there's one problem with MockRoundTrip: I can tell
it the class of the ActionBean I want to test, but I can't pass to it an
instance of an ActionBean. Instead, it seems to rely on creating an
ActionBean instance when the round trip is executed. This doesn't work
for me, as I need to create an instance of the ActionBean myself so I
can set mock collaborators on it. My ActionBeans use Spring beans, and
in my unit tests I mock out these Spring beans with EasyMock and inject
them myself into the ActionBean under test.
Since MockRoundTrip creates an instance of the ActionBean on the fly,
and doesn't let me create my own instance of the ActionBean, I can't set
mock objects on the ActionBean.
Is this correct, and if so, can you recommend any work around?
Thank you!!!
-Ryan

I just got done digging a little deeper. The constructor
OnwardResolution(Class) was added on March 13, 2006, and has always
depended on an ActionResolver being available. The good news for me is
that I didn't do it :) The bad news for you is that this isn't likely to
change anytime soon so you should go ahead and make sure you have a
working configuration available. Once you get your test fixture set up,
working with the Stripes mock objects is pretty easy. You can look at
the source for StripesTestFixture
<http://stripes.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/stripes/trunk/tests/src/net/s
ourceforge/stripes/StripesTestFixture.java?revision=1000&view=markup>
to get you started. Or you can probably just copy and use it directly.

I was looking into this last night. I read the unit testing
information on the Stripes web site, and it does say you should be able
to just create your ActionBeans and test them without using any mock
objects. Between 1.4 and 1.5 some new features were added that
introduced dependencies on the configuration into some classes that had
previously not depended on it. I'm not sure if it will be possible in
the future to test your ActionBeans this way, but I will look into it
further. In the meantime, you should look into making a Configuration
object available via StripesFilter. This might mean you have to use the
mock objects for now. Take a look at the unit testing docs
<http://www.stripesframework.org/display/stripes/Unit+Testing> on the
Stripes site for more information on how to do that.

In my unit tests I'm creating my ActionBeans simply by
using the "new"
operator:
MyActionBean actionBean = new MyActionBean();
Should they be created another way?

How are you launching your action beans in your unit
tests?
Specifically, is it through the Stripes "Mock"
facilities?
