Testing with JUnit 5 and Arquillian

If you are looking to test with JUnit 5 and Arqullien then this guide is for you!

In 5 steps you will learn how to do it.

They are:

  1. Create the Maven POM file
  2. Add the application class
  3. Add the endpoint
  4. Add an integration test
  5. Test the application

Create the Maven POM file

Create an empty directory to store your Maven project. Inside of that directory create the pom.xml file with the content as below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Add the application class

Add the Application class in the src/main/java directory, which allows you to set the application path using the @ApplicationPath annotation.

package arquillian;

import jakarta.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
import jakarta.ws.rs.core.Application;

@ApplicationPath("")
public class HelloArquillianApplication extends Application {
}

Add the endpoint

And we are adding a simple ‘Hello World’ endpoint that is listening on the /helloworld path.

package arquillian;

import jakarta.enterprise.context.RequestScoped;
import jakarta.ws.rs.GET;
import jakarta.ws.rs.Path;

@Path("/helloarquillian")
@RequestScoped
public class HelloArquillianBean {

    @GET
    public String helloArquillian() {
        return "Hello Arquillian!";
    }
}

Add an integration test

As we want to make sure the application gets tested before we release an integration test is added which will be executed as part of the build.

We'll add the integration test to the src/test/java directory.

package helloarquillian;

import arquillian.HelloArquillianApplication;
import arquillian.HelloArquillianBean;
import java.net.URI;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.http.HttpClient;
import java.net.http.HttpRequest;
import java.net.http.HttpResponse;
import java.net.http.HttpResponse.BodyHandlers;
import org.jboss.arquillian.container.test.api.Deployment;
import org.jboss.arquillian.container.test.api.RunAsClient;
import org.jboss.arquillian.junit5.ArquillianExtension;
import org.jboss.arquillian.test.api.ArquillianResource;
import static org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.ShrinkWrap.create;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.spec.WebArchive;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertTrue;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.ExtendWith;

@ExtendWith(ArquillianExtension.class)
public class HelloArquillianIT {

    @ArquillianResource
    private URL baseUrl;

    @Deployment(testable = false)
    public static WebArchive createDeployment() {
        return create(WebArchive.class)
                .addClass(HelloArquillianApplication.class)
                .addClass(HelloArquillianBean.class);
    }

    @Test
    @RunAsClient
    public void testHelloArquillian() throws Exception {
        HttpClient client = HttpClient.newHttpClient();
        HttpRequest request = HttpRequest
                .newBuilder(new URI(baseUrl + "helloarquillian"))
                .build();
        HttpResponse<String> response = client.send(request, BodyHandlers.ofString());
        assertTrue(response.body().contains("Hello Arquillian!"));
    }
}

Test the application

The application is now setup to use JUnit 5 and Arquillian to do the integration testing. So when you are building the application it will also execute an integration test validating the endpoint works.

To build and test the application execute the following command:

  mvn install

Conclusion

As you can see using JUnit 5 and Arquillian is pretty straightforward!
