public @interface RestClientTest

Annotation that can be used in combination with @RunWith(SpringRunner.class) for a typical Spring rest client test. Can be used when a test focuses only on beans that use RestTemplateBuilder.

Using this annotation will disable full auto-configuration and instead apply only configuration relevant to rest client tests (i.e. Jackson or GSON auto-configuration and @JsonComponent beans, but not regular @Component beans).

By default, tests annotated with RestClientTest will also auto-configure a MockRestServiceServer. For more fine-grained control the @AutoConfigureMockRestServiceServer annotation can be used.

If you are testing a bean that doesn't use RestTemplateBuilder but instead injects a RestTemplate directly, you can add @AutoConfigureWebClient(registerRestTemplate=true).

Element Detail

value

@AliasFor(value="components")
public abstract Class<?>[] value

Specifies the components to test. This is an alias of components() which can be used for brevity if no other attributes are defined. See components() for details.

Returns:

the components to test

See Also:

components()

Default:

{}

components

@AliasFor(value="value")
public abstract Class<?>[] components

Specifies the components to test. May be left blank if components will be manually imported or created directly.

Returns:

the components to test

See Also:

value()

Default:

{}

useDefaultFilters

public abstract boolean useDefaultFilters

Determines if default filtering should be used with @SpringBootApplication. By default only @JsonComponent and Module beans are included.

Returns:

if default filters should be used

See Also:

includeFilters(), excludeFilters()

Default:

true

includeFilters

public abstract ComponentScan.Filter[] includeFilters

A set of include filters which can be used to add otherwise filtered beans to the application context.

Returns:

include filters to apply

Default:

{}

excludeFilters

public abstract ComponentScan.Filter[] excludeFilters

A set of exclude filters which can be used to filter beans that would otherwise be added to the application context.

Returns:

exclude filters to apply

Default:

{}
