Class MockServletContext

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.mock.web.MockServletContext

All Implemented Interfaces:

ServletContext

public class MockServletContext
extends java.lang.Object
implements ServletContext

Mock implementation of the ServletContext interface.

As of Spring 5.0, this set of mocks is designed on a Servlet 4.0 baseline.

Compatible with Servlet 3.1 but can be configured to expose a specific version through setMajorVersion(int)/setMinorVersion(int); default is 3.1. Note that Servlet 3.1 support is limited: servlet, filter and listener registration methods are not supported; neither is JSP configuration. We generally do not recommend to unit test your ServletContainerInitializers and WebApplicationInitializers which is where those registration methods would be used.

For setting up a full WebApplicationContext in a test environment, you can use AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext, XmlWebApplicationContext, or GenericWebApplicationContext, passing in a corresponding MockServletContext instance. Consider configuring your MockServletContext with a FileSystemResourceLoader in order to interpret resource paths as relative filesystem locations.

Since:

1.0.2

See Also:

registerNamedDispatcher(java.lang.String, javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher)

Method Detail

getResourceLocation

protected java.lang.String getResourceLocation(java.lang.String path)

Build a full resource location for the given path, prepending the resource base path of this MockServletContext.

Parameters:

path - the path as specified

Returns:

the full resource path

setContextPath

public void setContextPath(java.lang.String contextPath)

getContextPath

public java.lang.String getContextPath()

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns the context path of the web application.

The context path is the portion of the request URI that is used to select the context of the request. The context path always comes first in a request URI. If this context is the "root" context rooted at the base of the Web server's URL name space, this path will be an empty string. Otherwise, if the context is not rooted at the root of the server's name space, the path starts with a / character but does not end with a / character.

It is possible that a servlet container may match a context by more than one context path. In such cases the HttpServletRequest.getContextPath() will return the actual context path used by the request and it may differ from the path returned by this method. The context path returned by this method should be considered as the prime or preferred context path of the application.

Specified by:

getContextPath in interface ServletContext

Returns:

The context path of the web application, or "" for the root context

See Also:

HttpServletRequest.getContextPath()

registerContext

public void registerContext(java.lang.String contextPath,
                            ServletContext context)

getContext

public ServletContext getContext(java.lang.String contextPath)

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns a ServletContext object that corresponds to a specified URL on the server.

This method allows servlets to gain access to the context for various parts of the server, and as needed obtain RequestDispatcher objects from the context. The given path must be begin with /, is interpreted relative to the server's document root and is matched against the context roots of other web applications hosted on this container.

In a security conscious environment, the servlet container may return null for a given URL.

Specified by:

getContext in interface ServletContext

Parameters:

contextPath - a String specifying the context path of another web application in the container.

Returns:

the ServletContext object that corresponds to the named URL, or null if either none exists or the container wishes to restrict this access.

See Also:

RequestDispatcher

setMajorVersion

public void setMajorVersion(int majorVersion)

getMajorVersion

public int getMajorVersion()

4

setMinorVersion

public void setMinorVersion(int minorVersion)

getMinorVersion

public int getMinorVersion()

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Specified by:

getMinorVersion in interface ServletContext

Returns:

0

setEffectiveMajorVersion

public void setEffectiveMajorVersion(int effectiveMajorVersion)

getEffectiveMajorVersion

public int getEffectiveMajorVersion()

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Gets the major version of the Servlet specification that the application represented by this ServletContext is based on.

The value returned may be different from ServletContext.getMajorVersion(), which returns the major version of the Servlet specification supported by the Servlet container.

Specified by:

getEffectiveMajorVersion in interface ServletContext

Returns:

the major version of the Servlet specification that the application represented by this ServletContext is based on

setEffectiveMinorVersion

public void setEffectiveMinorVersion(int effectiveMinorVersion)

getEffectiveMinorVersion

public int getEffectiveMinorVersion()

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Gets the minor version of the Servlet specification that the application represented by this ServletContext is based on.

The value returned may be different from ServletContext.getMinorVersion(), which returns the minor version of the Servlet specification supported by the Servlet container.

Specified by:

getEffectiveMinorVersion in interface ServletContext

Returns:

the minor version of the Servlet specification that the application represented by this ServletContext is based on

getMimeType

@Nullable
public java.lang.String getMimeType(java.lang.String filePath)

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns the MIME type of the specified file, or null if the MIME type is not known. The MIME type is determined by the configuration of the servlet container, and may be specified in a web application deployment descriptor. Common MIME types include text/html and image/gif.

Specified by:

getMimeType in interface ServletContext

Parameters:

filePath - a String specifying the name of a file

Returns:

a String specifying the file's MIME type

addMimeType

public void addMimeType(java.lang.String fileExtension,
                        MediaType mimeType)

Adds a mime type mapping for use by getMimeType(String).

Parameters:

fileExtension - a file extension, such as txt, gif

mimeType - the mime type

getResourcePaths

@Nullable
public java.util.Set<java.lang.String> getResourcePaths(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns a directory-like listing of all the paths to resources within the web application whose longest sub-path matches the supplied path argument.

Paths indicating subdirectory paths end with a /.

The returned paths are all relative to the root of the web application, or relative to the /META-INF/resources directory of a JAR file inside the web application's /WEB-INF/lib directory, and have a leading /.

The returned set is not backed by the ServletContext object, so changes in the returned set are not reflected in the ServletContext object, and vice-versa.

For example, for a web application containing:

   /welcome.html
   /catalog/index.html
   /catalog/products.html
   /catalog/offers/books.html
   /catalog/offers/music.html
   /customer/login.jsp
   /WEB-INF/web.xml
   /WEB-INF/classes/com.acme.OrderServlet.class
   /WEB-INF/lib/catalog.jar!/META-INF/resources/catalog/moreOffers/books.html
 

getResourcePaths("/") would return {"/welcome.html", "/catalog/", "/customer/", "/WEB-INF/"}, and getResourcePaths("/catalog/") would return {"/catalog/index.html", "/catalog/products.html", "/catalog/offers/", "/catalog/moreOffers/"}.

Specified by:

getResourcePaths in interface ServletContext

Parameters:

path - the partial path used to match the resources, which must start with a /

Returns:

a Set containing the directory listing, or null if there are no resources in the web application whose path begins with the supplied path.

getResource

@Nullable
public java.net.URL getResource(java.lang.String path)
                                   throws java.net.MalformedURLException

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns a URL to the resource that is mapped to the given path.

The path must begin with a / and is interpreted as relative to the current context root, or relative to the /META-INF/resources directory of a JAR file inside the web application's /WEB-INF/lib directory. This method will first search the document root of the web application for the requested resource, before searching any of the JAR files inside /WEB-INF/lib. The order in which the JAR files inside /WEB-INF/lib are searched is undefined.

This method allows the servlet container to make a resource available to servlets from any source. Resources can be located on a local or remote file system, in a database, or in a .war file.

The servlet container must implement the URL handlers and URLConnection objects that are necessary to access the resource.

This method returns null if no resource is mapped to the pathname.

Some containers may allow writing to the URL returned by this method using the methods of the URL class.

The resource content is returned directly, so be aware that requesting a .jsp page returns the JSP source code. Use a RequestDispatcher instead to include results of an execution.

This method has a different purpose than java.lang.Class.getResource, which looks up resources based on a class loader. This method does not use class loaders.

Specified by:

getResource in interface ServletContext

Parameters:

path - a String specifying the path to the resource

Returns:

the resource located at the named path, or null if there is no resource at that path

Throws:

java.net.MalformedURLException - if the pathname is not given in the correct form

getResourceAsStream

@Nullable
public java.io.InputStream getResourceAsStream(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns the resource located at the named path as an InputStream object.

The data in the InputStream can be of any type or length. The path must be specified according to the rules given in getResource. This method returns null if no resource exists at the specified path.

Meta-information such as content length and content type that is available via getResource method is lost when using this method.

The servlet container must implement the URL handlers and URLConnection objects necessary to access the resource.

This method is different from java.lang.Class.getResourceAsStream, which uses a class loader. This method allows servlet containers to make a resource available to a servlet from any location, without using a class loader.

Specified by:

getResourceAsStream in interface ServletContext

Parameters:

path - a String specifying the path to the resource

Returns:

the InputStream returned to the servlet, or null if no resource exists at the specified path

getRequestDispatcher

public RequestDispatcher getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns a RequestDispatcher object that acts as a wrapper for the resource located at the given path. A RequestDispatcher object can be used to forward a request to the resource or to include the resource in a response. The resource can be dynamic or static.

The pathname must begin with a / and is interpreted as relative to the current context root. Use getContext to obtain a RequestDispatcher for resources in foreign contexts.

This method returns null if the ServletContext cannot return a RequestDispatcher.

Specified by:

getRequestDispatcher in interface ServletContext

Parameters:

path - a String specifying the pathname to the resource

Returns:

a RequestDispatcher object that acts as a wrapper for the resource at the specified path, or null if the ServletContext cannot return a RequestDispatcher

See Also:

RequestDispatcher, ServletContext.getContext(java.lang.String)

getNamedDispatcher

public RequestDispatcher getNamedDispatcher(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.ServletContext

Returns a RequestDispatcher object that acts as a wrapper for the named servlet.

Servlets (and JSP pages also) may be given names via server administration or via a web application deployment descriptor. A servlet instance can determine its name using ServletConfig.getServletName().

This method returns null if the ServletContext cannot return a RequestDispatcher for any reason.

Specified by:

getNamedDispatcher in interface ServletContext

Parameters:

path - a String specifying the name of a servlet to wrap

Returns:

a RequestDispatcher object that acts as a wrapper for the named servlet, or null if the ServletContext cannot return a RequestDispatcher

See Also:

RequestDispatcher, ServletContext.getContext(java.lang.String), ServletConfig.getServletName()

registerNamedDispatcher

public void registerNamedDispatcher(java.lang.String name,
                                    RequestDispatcher requestDispatcher)

Register a RequestDispatcher (typically a MockRequestDispatcher) that acts as a wrapper for the named Servlet.

Parameters:

name - the name of the wrapped Servlet

requestDispatcher - the dispatcher that wraps the named Servlet

See Also:

getNamedDispatcher(java.lang.String), unregisterNamedDispatcher(java.lang.String)

unregisterNamedDispatcher

public void unregisterNamedDispatcher(java.lang.String name)

Unregister the RequestDispatcher with the given name.

Parameters:
