MockMvc

An Extension for Spring MockMvc tests to enable meaningful testing of controllers that produces HTML.

Setup

In order to use the MockMvc-extension it's required to have the skrapeit-core artifact in the classpath as well as having a proper spring-test / spring-boot-test setup.

Maven

pom.xml

<dependency>
   <groupId>it.skrape</groupId>
   <artifactId>skrapeit-core</artifactId>
   <version>LATEST</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
   <groupId>it.skrape</groupId>
   <artifactId>skrapeit-mockmvc</artifactId>
   <version>LATEST</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Gradle

build.gradle.kts

testCompile("it.skrape:skrapeit-core:+")
testCompile("it.skrape:skrapeit-mockmvc:+")

How to Use

The skrape{it} MockMvc-extension will extend MockMvc's ResultActions with an andExpectHtml{} lambda function. The scope of the lambda will give you a parsed response body (deserialized to a Doc) and enables you to make comfortable assumptions about the content, properties and structure of the document.
