Unit testing wicket

[Niranjan Rao <nh...@gmail.com>]

Hi there,

Followed instructions to get wicket working with Spring dependency
injections. It does work in most of the scenarios. 

One scenario that is troubling me is unit testing. I have following
simple class. So long as I have one unit test in the class, it works
fine. If I add more than one test case, setUp method is called more than
twice and wicket throws the exception "Application name can only be set
once.". I tried converting setUp to static and using BeforeClass
annotation so that it's initialized only once. This fails as theApp
dependency is not filled by spring.

Any ideas/help will be greatly appreciated.

public  class TesterMe {

	protected WicketTester tester;

	@Autowired
	protected WicketApplication theApp;

	@Autowired
	protected AnnotationSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory;

	@Before
	public void setUp() {
		Assert.assertNotNull("Could not get application", theApp);
		tester = new WicketTester(theApp);
		
	}

@Test
public void testSomething()
{
}
}

Regards,

Niranjan

You need a fresh application instance everytime. In our application for 
normal execution, app bean is still defined and used through 
SpringWebApplicationFactory, but in unit tests, we setup tester like this:

         tester = new WicketTester(new App(){
             {
                 this.setApplicationContext(ctx);

             }
             @Override
             protected void outputDevelopmentModeWarning() {
                 // just get rid of default wicket development message here.

             }
         });
