THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
...
To test actions that do not use Spring, extend StrutsTestCase. The following example shows different ways of testing an action:
Mapping:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<struts>
<constant name="struts.objectFactory" value="spring"/>
<package name="test" namespace="/test" extends="struts-default">
<action name="testAction" class="org.apache.struts2.TestAction">
<result type="freemarker">/template.ftl</result>
</action>
</package>
</struts>
|
Action:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
public class TestAction extends ActionSupport {
private String name;
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
|
JUnit:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
package org.apache.struts2;
import org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.mapper.ActionMapping;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionProxy;
import com.opensymphony.xwork2.Action;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
public class StrutsTestCaseTest extends StrutsTestCase {
public void testGetActionMapping() {
ActionMapping mapping = getActionMapping("/test/testAction.action");
assertNotNull(mapping);
assertEquals("/test", mapping.getNamespace());
assertEquals("testAction", mapping.getName());
}
public void testGetActionProxy() throws Exception {
//set parameters before calling getActionProxy
request.setParameter("name", "FD");
ActionProxy proxy = getActionProxy("/test/testAction.action");
assertNotNull(proxy);
TestAction action = (TestAction) proxy.getAction();
assertNotNull(action);
String result = proxy.execute();
assertEquals(Action.SUCCESS, result);
assertEquals("FD", action.getName());
}
public void testExecuteAction() throws ServletException, UnsupportedEncodingException {
String output = executeAction("/test/testAction.action");
assertEquals("Hello", output);
}
public void testGetValueFromStack() throws ServletException, UnsupportedEncodingException {
request.setParameter("name", "FD");
executeAction("/test/testAction.action");
String name = (String) findValueAfterExecute("name");
assertEquals("FD", name);
}
}

Method Name | Description |
|---|---|
executeAction(String) | Pass the url for the action, and it will return the output of the action. This output is not the action result, like "success", but what would be written to the result stream. To use this the actions must be using a result type that can be read from the classpath, like FreeMarker, velocity, etc (if you are using the experimental Embedded JSP Plugin, you can use JSPs also) |
getActionProxy(String) | Builds an action proxy that can be used to invoke an action, by calling |
getActionMapping(String) | Gets an |
injectStrutsDependencies(object) | Injects Struts dependencies into an object (dependencies are marked with |
findValueAfterExecute(String) | Finds an object in the value stack, after an action has been executed |
applyAdditionalParams(ActionContext) | Can be overwritten in subclass to provide additional params and settings used during action invocation |
| createAction(Class) | Can be used to instantiate an action which requires framework's dependencies to be injected (e.g. extending ActionSupport requires inject some internal dependencies) |
Field | Description |
|---|---|
MockHttpServletRequest request | The request that will be passed to Struts. Make sure to set parameters in this object before calling methods like |
MockHttpServletResponse response | The response object passed to Struts, you can use this class to test the output, response headers, etc |
MockServletContext servletContext | The servlet context object passed to Struts |

Make sure to add a dependency to the Spring Plugin to your pom.xml:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.struts</groupId>
<artifactId>struts2-spring-plugin</artifactId>
<version>STRUTS_VERSION</version>
</dependency>
