Builds upon the Injection of EntityManager Example but adds the use of @RolesAllowed and @PermitAll in the @Stateful bean to restrict who can perform create, persist and remove operations on the EntityManager. Shows a TestCase using the @RunAs annotation to execute and test the bean code as various users.

In this example we restrict the ability to create Movie Entities to a Manager or an Employee. Reads are open to anyone, logged in or not. And delete operations are only allowed by a Manager.

See the Security Annotations page for a full description of how the security annotations work.

The source for this example is in the "testing-security" directory located in the openejb-examples.zip available on the download page.

The Code

...

Just as with the Testing Transactions Example the magic of this unit test is in the ManagerBean and EmployeeBean @Stateless beans that we've tucked into our TestCase as inner classes. These beans allow us to execute our test code as either a Manager or as an Employee and test that Movies @Stateful bean is setup to restrict and permit calls according to our intended design.

Writing a unit test for the example

Curious on the InitialContext parameters used? See the Injection of DataSource Example for an explanation of how any Resource can be configured via properties in the TestCase itself or via an openejb.xml file.

Running

Running the example is fairly simple. In the "testing-security" directory of the examples zip, just run:

...

Which should create output like the following.
