Re: Recommendation for replacing network with mock

[Willem Jiang <wi...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

It's is a interesting test requirement.
As you know CXF using the LocalTransport to avoid using the network 
during the unit test.

If you just want to test the interceptor in unit test, it could be more 
straight if you just mock a message with the Stream that you want to 
feed in.

Hi Willem.  I do have unit tests for each class.  What I also want is an
integration test that proves that a bad response is fixed.  The closer I get
to the actual production environment, the more confidence I'll have that
everything is working together.  Also, when JAXB or CXF are updated to newer
versions I can quickly and confidently assert that there were not any
breaking changes.  Philosophically I'm trying for integration tests, not
just unit tests.

I haven't seen LocalTransportFactory yet, thanks for the tip.  Can you
please point me to an example on how to get my hardcoded SOAP into the
LocalConduit.  I don't see what is feeding the PipedInputStream.

Thanks, Ray
